About this work

This engraving shows a man and a woman standing side by side. The man wears a wide-brimmed hat, a fur-lined cloak, and a chain around his neck. The woman has a tall collar with ruffles, a beaded necklace, and a long dress with swirling patterns. Both stand against a draped background, with crests above their heads. The text at the bottom names them as Albert and Isabella Clara Eugenia, rulers of the Netherlands. Their clothes and poses show off wealth and power. Want to know more?
