This anonymous engraving, "Schaalstok met passer en wapenschild van Moravië", dates from 1572-1575 and depicts the coat of arms of Moravia. The shield is centered within a triangular frame formed by a pair of compasses, which are open and ready for use. At the base of the triangle is a scroll with the words "Morauica, Hungarica" inscribed on it, signifying the geographical context of the emblem. The engraving is a visual representation of the historical and geographic significance of Moravia in the 16th century.
