About the Item

Antique engraving with the title Arrival of the English King Charles II from Delft in The Hague, 25 May 1660. Episode during his tour through and departure from the Netherlands.

On the left part of the signs of the zodiac. Marked at the top: Page. 34. In the top the Arms of the King with the text: Honi soit qui mal y pense. This a maxim in the Anglo-Norman language, a dialect of Old Norman French spoken by the medieval ruling class in England, meaning "shamed be whoever thinks ill of it", usually translated as "shame on anyone who thinks evil of it" It has been used as the motto of the British chivalric Order of the Garter. In current French usage, the phrase may be used ironically to insinuate the presence of a hidden agenda or a conflict of interest. Makers (mentioned on the engraving): Pieter Philippe after a design of: Jacob Toorenvliet. Source: This print comes from a publication: Abraham de Wicquefort, Verhael in forme van journael, van de reys ende 't vertoeven van (...)
