This 1646 engraving, likely by an anonymous artist, depicts Erik Klipping, King of Denmark, within an oval frame. The inscription below identifies him as "Ericus VII Glipping dictus Rex Daniæ, Landalorum Gothorum Dux, Asthorideu," confirming his royal status and titles. The engraving is housed at the Statens Museum for Kunst in Denmark, showcasing the museum's collection of historical portraits and engravings. The work is a valuable document for understanding the visual representation of Danish royalty during the 17th century.
