This anonymous etching from 1691, titled *Erepoort opgericht op de Plaats te Den Haag, 1691*, depicts a triumphal arch erected in The Hague. The image depicts a large crowd gathered in front of the arch, possibly commemorating a royal event or political victory. The intricate detail of the architecture and the dense crowd give a glimpse into the city life of 17th-century Netherlands. This etching, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a valuable historical document providing insight into Dutch civic events and visual culture of the era.
