This engraving, *De bruid ontvangt Geloof en Hoop* (The Bride receives Faith and Hope), by Wierix from 1574 depicts the symbolic wedding of a bride to allegorical figures representing Faith and Hope. The bride is presented with a scepter, symbolizing her regal status, while a figure of Hope offers a lighted torch, representing divine guidance. This print, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a small yet intricate work that speaks to the complex themes of spiritual devotion and divine favor.
