This 1639 engraving by Boëtius Adamsz. Bolswert, titled *Titelblad met het wapen met het koggeschip*, depicts the coat of arms of Amsterdam, featuring a cog ship. The engraving is part of a larger publication, *Amsteldams eer ende opcomen door de denckwaerdighe miraklen aldaer gefchied aen ende door het H. Sacrament des Altaers* (Amsterdam's honor and rising through the memorable miracles that took place there by the Holy Sacrament of the Altar), published in Antwerp by Hendrick Aertsens in 1639. This print is a fine example of Dutch engraving and its use in book illustrations.
