"Blad met tientallen kleine voorstellingen van juridische aard (illustraties voor 'Ars magna et admirabilis (...) Pandectarum tituli (...) ope figurarum emblematicarum'?)" is a 17th-century Dutch etching by Romeyn de Hooghe. It's a complex work of art, displaying a grid of 50 small scenes representing legal subjects, likely illustrating the text "Ars magna et admirabilis (...) Pandectarum tituli (...) ope figurarum emblematicarum?". This artwork is a prime example of the Dutch Golden Age penchant for detailed, illustrative prints with a focus on legal and social themes. The Rijksmuseum houses this unique piece, showcasing de Hooghe's mastery of printmaking techniques and his ability to present complex legal concepts visually.
