The engravings, measuring 107 mm by 62 mm, showcase Geyser's skill in rendering detailed figures and settings, characteristic of the 18th-century printmaking tradition. The work is a visual testament to the historical events and figures that shaped the Netherlands, providing insight into the artistic style and historical interests of the period.
