This 1768 etching by Joannes Verhoeven, titled "Omlijsting met H. Antonius, Anna te Drieën en gebouw te Leuven," is a decorative frame featuring religious figures and a building. Saint Anthony, recognizable by his pig, stands at the left, while a depiction of the Annunciation, with the Virgin Mary and baby Jesus, is on the right. The bottom depicts a building in Leuven, possibly a university, along with portraits of Plato and Aristotle, indicating a scholarly theme. The frame was likely intended for use in a document or certificate.
