This 18th-century artwork, "Boom met twee wapenschilden, aan elke zijde een tamboer", created by the widow of Gijsbert de Groot, depicts two drummers flanking a tree with a coat of arms. The central tree with the coat of arms and two lions serves as the centerpiece of the artwork. The visual style suggests a Dutch influence, with the intricate details and symbolic elements typical of the time. This print might have been commissioned for a special occasion, possibly to celebrate a victory or to commemorate an important event. The presence of lions, a symbol of strength and nobility, further adds to the ceremonial nature of the artwork.
