Memorieprent voor Hendrik Danielsz. Hooft after 1794

This print, created by François Joseph Pfeiffer after 1794, is a memorial to Hendrik Danielsz. Hooft, a former mayor of Amsterdam. The circular image depicts Hooft's bust in the center, surmounted by a triangle, with a grieving woman and cherubic figures below. The print is framed by a musical score, likely a commemorative song or hymn. Pfeiffer's work showcases the typical style of the late 18th-century Dutch printmaking, with its detailed engravings and focus on historical figures. This print, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, offers a glimpse into the remembrance of significant figures in 18th-century Dutch society.
