Notes

One of a series of forty-three plates illustrating Gaspar Gevaerts' "Pompa Introitus"; for further comments see 1884,0112.31. This etching depicts the triumphal procession honoring Prince Ferdinand vistory at the Battle of Nördlingen on 6 September 1634.

The original painting by Jan van den Hoecke, after Rubens' modello, was touched up by Jacob Jordaens at the time of its presentation as a gift to Prince Ferdinand and is now in the Uffizi.

For the counterpart to this composition, see the Battle of Nördlingen on the front façade of the Arch of Ferdinand (1884,0112.57).
