Leonhard Beck

Cleveland Museum of Art

An engraving from "Saints Connected with the House of Habsburg: A General Account of the Ancestry of Emperor Maximilian I" by Leonhard Beck. A crowned king-like figure with a halo, holding a scepter, and wearing a long cape and ornate clothing, stands facing and gesturing to a group seated at a table. The figure has a long beard and is lit from behind, creating a bright aura. The group around the table is eating or drinking. A circular emblem hangs on a wall to the figure's left. A window in the background shows a mountain scene with a castle. The scene is within a room. The style is detailed line work.
