This intricate damask tablecloth, created in 1613 by Dutch artist Passchier Lammertijn, features a central tree flanked by a series of coats of arms. The elaborate design, which includes the inscription "Tandem fit surculus arbor" ("Together a sapling becomes a tree"), likely celebrates the lineage and power of the Dutch Count Maurice of Nassau. The tablecloth is a fine example of 17th century Dutch textile art, showcasing the craftsmanship and symbolic imagery of the period.
