This 1707 print by Dutch artist Carel Allard commemorates the death of Louis William, Margrave of Baden-Baden. The print features a satirical depiction of the margrave, surrounded by mourning figures and allegorical symbols. The work is a prime example of the Dutch tradition of political and social commentary through the use of printmaking, and reflects the complex political landscape of the time. The print, now in the Rijksmuseum collection, is a testament to the artist's skill in conveying political and social messages in a visually engaging manner.
