Description:
|
|
| Celebrating the Low Countries victory over the Spanish, this is one of the most striking of the Leo Belgici. Standing rampant with fine original hand-colour, the symbol of the Lion embodies Dutch pride. The costumed figures, both peasant and noble, add greatly to its appeal. Original Colour. [Framed] [BELUX744] |
