This etching by Bernard Picart, dated 1726, is a complex and detailed design incorporating a coat of arms, a landscape, and an ornate frame. The coat of arms features three birds, perhaps signifying a family crest, while the scene below shows people working the land and tending livestock. The words "sic vos non vobis" are inscribed on the top of the frame, hinting at a moral or allegorical theme. The use of intricate details and the inclusion of a text inscription are hallmarks of 18th-century engraving, making this a valuable example of the period's artistry.
