About this work

This painting copies a 17th-century coat of arms. It shows a shield with lions, a crown, and a hand holding a palm branch. Flags, swords, and armor surround the shield. The artist used india paper, a thin, strong paper made in the 1800s. It lets you see every tiny line in the original design. Want to see more like this? Look up engravings by Wenceslaus Hollar.
