This 1753 title page from the book *Inhuldiging van zijne doorluchtige hoogheid Willem Karel Hendrik Friso (...) als erf-heer van Vlissingen, op den Vden junij MDCCLI* by Isaak Tirion depicts a decorative engraving of a coat of arms at the bottom of the page. This book commemorates the 1751 inauguration of William Karel Hendrik Friso as Lord of Vlissingen. This page is a prime example of the meticulous and elegant printing work of Tirion, a prominent publisher and engraver in the Netherlands in the mid-18th century. The title page is now held by the Rijksmuseum, a testament to the historical importance of the subject matter and the artistry of Tirion.
