This 18th-century engraving by François van Bleyswijck is a title page illustration for a legal dissertation by the author Franciscus Fabricius. The engraving depicts a Roman architectural frame with figures of Roman Emperor Justinian, Minerva, and Justice. The engraving was likely created for a legal audience and symbolizes the rule of law and justice. It is characteristic of the baroque style popular during the period and is a fine example of Dutch engraving.
