"Spotprent op de bisschop van Munster, 1665" is a satirical print created by Emrik & Binger in the Netherlands between 1877 and 1879. The print depicts a bishop holding a book in one hand and a sword in the other. The scene is accompanied by the Latin phrase "Ne Sutor ultra crepidam" which translates to "Let not the cobbler go beyond his last". The satirical artwork comments on the bishop's overstepping of his authority, with the sword representing his worldly power and the book representing his religious authority. This print is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum.
