Wedding print with a monument in honor of the marriage of Nicolaas de Vicq and Maria Jacoba van Riet. In the center, Juno, goddess of marriage, is enthroned. She is flanked by two statues of women, one depicted with two children. Above her are several putti, two of whom sit on either side of the monogram of the wedding couple. In front of Juno, two amoratti offer on the altar of love with burning hearts. To the left, the wedding couple. In the foreground, two obelisks: on the left, a quiver and bow, attributes of Amor, and on the right, an obelisk with two burning torches as symbols of love. At the bottom, the wedding date in Roman numerals: 1701-09-21.
