This print captures the University of Leiden in the Netherlands, dating back to 1614. The intricate engraving, created by a Dutch School artist from the 17th century, showcases the architectural beauty and grandeur of this esteemed institution. Founded in 1575 by William, Prince of Orange, the University of Leiden has stood as a symbol of knowledge and learning for centuries.

It offers a glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate both the historical significance and artistic mastery behind this portrayal.
