This engraving by Cornelis Galle I, titled "Begrafenisstoet van aartshertog Albrecht (plaat XIX)," depicts the funeral procession of Archduke Albrecht of Austria. The artwork, which dates from 1623, is a detailed depiction of the procession, showing individuals in various roles, including "Portiers de la Dame," "Portiers de Salette," "Maîtres d'Hôtel de l'Estat des gardes de Chambre et Pages," and "Aides des Garderobes." The engraving's meticulous details offer a glimpse into the ceremonial grandeur of a royal funeral in the early 17th century. The work is now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, adding to the institution's rich holdings of Dutch and Flemish art.
