"Caroline Mathildes indtog" (1766) by Johannes Gottfred Bradt (1741-1770) is an architectural engraving depicting the entrance to the public square of the envoy of Brittany, Titley, in Copenhagen. This architectural design includes an arched doorway with a central crest featuring two angels and the inscription "VIM" (Latin for "strength"). The design is framed by elaborate columns, with a bas-relief above the entrance depicting a scene of classical mythology. The print is housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst and is a prime example of Danish Rococo architecture, showcasing the elegance and grandeur of the period.
