This 1656 etching by Dirck de Bray, titled "Verschillende gebeurtenissen in Europa in het jaar 1655 bekroond door Mercurius," depicts multiple events that occurred in Europe during the year 1655. The etching is divided into five sections, with the top section showing a female figure representing Holland holding a shield with a lion, a symbol of the Dutch Republic. The figure is accompanied by the Roman god Mercury, symbolizing commerce and communication. The remaining sections feature various scenes, likely representing important events of the year in Holland.
