This 19th-century document, "Afschrift van de ordonnantie met een verbod op de drukken en uitgeven van de spotprent op het geldtekort van Spinola, 1624," created by Prosper Cuypers van Veldhoven, is a handwritten copy of an ordinance prohibiting the printing and distribution of a satirical cartoon about the financial woes of Ambrogio Spinola, a prominent military leader, during the Thirty Years' War. The document serves as a historical record of the political and cultural climate of the time, reflecting the sensitivity surrounding public criticism of powerful figures and the control exerted over information dissemination.
