This 1815 print by V. Labargé depicts the coat of arms of the Kingdom of the Netherlands. The design features a shield with a gold lion on a blue background, flanked by two black lions holding the shield. The lions are crowned, signifying the royal status of the Netherlands. The motto, "Je maintiendrai," meaning "I will maintain," is inscribed on a ribbon below the shield. This heraldic depiction was a significant symbol of the newly formed Kingdom of the Netherlands, established after the Napoleonic Wars, and served to represent its power and sovereignty.
