Vignet met Huis Beerschot en bisschoppelijk wapen c. 1663 - 1699

"Vignet met Huis Beerschot en bisschoppelijk wapen" is an etching by Dutch artist Hendrik Causé, dated c. 1663-1699. The print depicts a view of the Huis Beerschot, a manor house located in the town of Beerse, Belgium. Causé has framed this view with an elaborate, decorative scrollwork cartouche. It features the coat of arms of the bishop of Antwerp, which is represented by a bear within the cartouche. The artwork's detailed rendering of the building's architecture and the surrounding landscape showcases Causé's mastery of the etching medium. This small-scale vignette provides a glimpse into the architectural and heraldic traditions of 17th-century Belgium.
