You see a coat of arms with symbols like lions and unicorns in this painting. It's a copy from the 19th century, and that's interesting because it shows how artists repeated important designs. The details in the copy are pretty accurate, which suggests the artist paid close attention to the original. You can learn more about this style by looking into the technique of impasto.
