This title page, created by Zacharias Dolendo in 1606, is a small engraving measuring 91 mm by 73 mm and held in the Rijksmuseum. It's a design for the title page of a book called "Thronus Iustitiae," which means "The Throne of Justice" and was likely a collection of 12 engravings. The detailed text identifies the artists involved, including painter Joachimo Wtenwalio and sculptor Wilhelmo Swanenburgio, and details the publisher Christophorus a Sichern. The artwork is a prime example of Dutch 17th-century printmaking and would have been used to advertise the book.
