This 1724 title page, created by Salomon Kleiner (1700-1761), features an inscription of a dedication to the "Reverend Princes." The title page is likely from a larger series of prints about churches in Vienna and is a testament to Kleiner’s skill in the meticulous art of engraving. It is now part of the collection of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, measuring 230 mm in height and 345 mm in width. The title page reflects the importance of religion in 18th-century Vienna and demonstrates how engraving could be utilized for both artistic and historical purposes.
