This 1584 engraving by Dutch artist Hendrick Goltzius depicts William the Conqueror, Duke of Normandy, holding a sword and shield while a herald presents a crown and book. The image is characteristic of Goltzius's detailed style, with intricate patterns on the clothing and a dramatic composition. The work celebrates William's conquest of England in 1066 and showcases the meticulous artistry of the Dutch Renaissance.
