This anonymous 1761 etching, titled "Rocaille cartouche met man in harnas en riviergodin," features a rococo cartouche filled with military imagery. The scene depicts a figure in armor holding a sword and standing on a cannon and a barrel. A river goddess lies below holding an overflowing vase while other military paraphernalia, including flags, spears, and an armor piece, are arranged around the composition. The cartouche holds the title "LE LANDGRAVIAT DE HESSE-CASSEL MERIDIONAL et SEPTENTR" in French, hinting at its potential use as a title page for a book or map.
