This etching, created by Jacobus Schijnvoet between 1704 and 1733, depicts the coat of arms of Scheveningen flanked by two figures representing Vigilance and Minerva. The coat of arms, a shield with three fish, is surrounded by an ornate frame with a banner reading "Waakt - Huijbert" The figures, seated on plinths, symbolize the town's virtues of vigilance and wisdom. This artwork is housed in the Rijksmuseum and is a testament to the rich history and artistic tradition of the Netherlands.
