This 17th-century engraving, "Vignet van Abraham Hasius," is a fine example of a heraldic vignette. It depicts a leaping rabbit, surrounded by a wreath of laurel leaves, a crown, and a shield. The image is contained within a circular frame, with the name "ABRAHAM HASIUS" inscribed around its circumference, while the monogram "AH" appears at the bottom, symbolizing the individual's identity. The intricate details and precise lines of the engraving highlight the craftsmanship of the anonymous artist and provide a glimpse into the visual language of heraldry in the Dutch Golden Age.
