Allegory with Friars and the Koophuys Engraving
An engraving in black ink on ivory laid paper shows four cowled friars in long habits in the foreground, some seen from behind and others in profile. At left, a domed rotunda on a hill holds a statue, and a crowd of small figures struggles in a rocky field below. A distant town and landscape stretch across the right.
