Nobilitas n.d.

"Nobilitas" is an engraving by English artist George Vertue, depicting a seated figure, presumably representing nobility, surrounded by weaponry, armor and other military paraphernalia. The scene is a symbolic representation of strength and power, typical of 18th-century European art. It's a complex composition, with details including flags, cannon, swords, and a winged figure above, creating a dynamic visual experience. The artwork is in the collection of The Art Institute of Chicago, and its small size, only 70 × 148 mm, contributes to its intimate and detailed character.
