Dating back to circa 1900, this heraldic image reflects the rich history and cultural heritage of the Netherlands, also known as Holland. At the heart of the Coat of Arms lies the shield, divided into four quarters. The first and fourth quarters display the lions of the Dutch provinces of Guelders and Friesland, respectively. The second and third quarters represent the counties of Holland and Hainaut, with their distinctive leopards and fleur-de-lis. The shield is surmounted by a helmet, adorned with a royal crown and a lion holding a scepter and orb. The Coat of Arms of the Netherlands is a testament to the country's complex history, which includes the rule of various counts, dukes, and kings.

This print offers a captivating glimpse into the past, showcasing the heraldic symbols that have come to represent the Dutch Kingdom. Heraldry played a significant role in medieval Europe, serving as a means of identification for nobility and rulers. The Coat of Arms of the Netherlands is a prime example of the intricate designs and symbolism that characterized this art form. This print invites us to explore the history and traditions of the Netherlands, as well as the broader context of European heraldry.
