This anonymous print, created sometime between 1685 and 1720, depicts two seals of the University of Franeker, a university located in the Dutch province of Friesland. The seals, surrounded by a circular inscription in Latin, are a testament to the university's history and its commitment to the pursuit of knowledge. Each seal features a central motif of books, symbolizing learning and wisdom, alongside the university's coat of arms, representing its identity and heritage. These intricate seals, meticulously rendered in black ink, offer a glimpse into the institution's history and its role in intellectual pursuits.
