Jacob van der Ulft's "Orientalischer Fürst auf dem Thron, dem Geschenke gebracht werden" is a detailed pen and ink drawing depicting an opulent scene of an Eastern prince seated on a throne surrounded by his court. The prince receives gifts from kneeling figures, highlighting the power and wealth of his position. The intricate details of the clothing, architecture, and surrounding figures showcase the artist's talent for capturing a moment of grandeur in a realistic style. This drawing is housed in the Städel Museum, providing a fascinating glimpse into the art of 17th-century Dutch draughtsmanship.
