Crispijn van den Queborn's "Portret van Maurits, prins van Oranje" is a 17th-century engraving depicting Maurice, Prince of Orange, in an oval portrait frame surrounded by heraldic symbols. The Prince's stern expression, detailed armor, and lavish collar emphasize his status and power. The surrounding imagery, including a crowned lion, swords, and a serpent, further underscores his position as a military leader. This intricate engraving, measuring 262 mm high and 184 mm wide, is a testament to the artistic skill of Van den Queborn and the cultural significance of Prince Maurice in Dutch history. The print is currently held in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
