This anonymous etching, created between 1649 and 1651, depicts the marriage of Prince Willem II and Maria Stuart. The central figures of the couple stand on a platform, exchanging vows under the watchful eyes of angels. The scene is further enhanced by the presence of distinguished guests, including the couple's parents. The artwork, currently housed at the Rijksmuseum, provides a glimpse into the opulence and grandeur of seventeenth-century royal weddings and serves as a historical document of this significant event.
