This engraving, titled "Vier kerkelijke prelaten" by Abraham de Bruyn (1540-1587), depicts four religious figures in ceremonial robes. Dated before 1581, it showcases the detailed attire of high-ranking clergy, likely created for a book illustrating religious figures or rituals. The precise identities of the figures are unclear, but the engraving provides information on their titles and attributes. The meticulous depiction of clothing and accessories offers a glimpse into the elaborate visual culture of the period, making this an intriguing piece for art lovers and historians alike.
