This 17th-century engraving, *Wapen van het Huis Nassau* (Coat of Arms of the House of Nassau) by Dutch artist Dirck de Bray, depicts a detailed heraldic shield. The shield features a central coat of arms surrounded by a wreath of fruit and foliage. The prominent use of heraldic imagery and ornate flourishes is characteristic of this period's artistic style. The engraving serves as a visual representation of the House of Nassau, a prominent German noble family, and its historical significance. This print, measuring 101 mm in height and 94 mm in width, showcases De Bray's meticulous attention to detail and masterful use of linework.
