This title page for Rhijnvis Feith's 1795 play "C. Mucius Cordus, of De Verlossing van Rome" was designed by Reinier Vinkeles. It showcases a simple yet striking visual element: a central vignette of a draped female figure holding scales and standing atop a cloud. This classical figure likely represents Justice, symbolizing the play's themes of morality and justice. Vinkeles's engraving, created in the Dutch Golden Age style, emphasizes clarity and precision, reflecting the artistic tastes of the era. The title page is an integral part of the play's presentation, subtly hinting at the play's content and further emphasizing the work's connection to Roman history and ideals.
