This engraving by Pieter Feddes van Harlingen from 1618-1620 depicts Gosso Ludigmannus, the sixth Potestat of Friesland. The image shows Ludigmannus standing with a sword in his right hand and holding a staff in his left hand, facing the viewer. He is dressed in a long robe and wears a hat with a plume. His left foot rests on a shield bearing the coat of arms of Friesland. The image also features a female figure, likely personifying Friesland, dressed in a long gown and holding a small sword. The engraving is framed by a decorative border. The artwork is part of the Rijksmuseum collection.
