Description
Print commemorating birthday festivities for the Prince of Orange in 1686, held in the Huis ter Borch, The Hague. At the top of the print are three vignettes: a portrait of the Princess of Orange at center, flanked by a view of the building's façade at left and a banquet scene at right. The main portion of the print depicts a court ball at which a single couple dances, observed by the Princess of Orange and some two hundred spectators, while musicians play in the foreground of the scene. Below them, two allegorical female figures, holding musical instruments, flank the engraver's dedication to the princess. At the bottom of the print is a numbered key, in Dutch and French, to various personages portrayed in the ballroom scene, among them the princess, the prince of Brandenberg, and ambassadors from Morocco; the key also points out the illumination of the dome and paintings in the ballroom.
