This 17th-century anonymous etching, "Stadspoort in de vorm van een triomfboog, met Ionische zuilen," depicts a triumphal arch with Ionic columns. The architectural design is detailed and includes a central archway, flanking structures, and a decorative crest. The scene is likely a city gate, suggesting a ceremonial or symbolic function. The inclusion of figures in the foreground adds a sense of scale and human presence. The etching is now part of the collection of the Rijksmuseum.
