This engraving by Ludwig Gottlieb Portman depicts a monument commemorating the Stadtholdership of the Netherlands in 1806. The monument, a grand triumphal arch, features a series of figures, including the Stadtholder Willem V, his wife Wilhelmina, and their family. It also features a variety of decorative elements, such as wreaths and the coat of arms of the Netherlands. The engraving is a testament to Portman's skill as an artist and his ability to capture the grandeur of this historical event. The artwork provides a glimpse into the political climate of the Netherlands at the beginning of the 19th century and provides context for the historical significance of the Stadtholdership.
