This engraving by Isaac Vincentsz. van der Vinne, dating back to 1681-1740, depicts the coat of arms for Jan Westerhoven, a merchant in Amsterdam. The detailed crest features two lions supporting a helmet with a crown, surrounding a shield bearing the initials "J.W." along with a stag, and an arrangement of five thistle flowers, likely a symbol of the Westerhoven family. This small-scale work exemplifies the meticulous style of Dutch engraving during this period.
