| Description | A black and white photograph of a painting of the Virgin and Child taking a sceptre from a nobleman in a cartouche, with another bearded figure behind the nobleman. The Lion of Venice (winged lion holding a book) is depicted at the top, and the emblem of a double-headed eagle (most likely symbolising the Holy Roman Empire) surrounded by the Latin phrase 'Malo mori quam f(o)edari' (translates into English as 'death rather than dishonour') can be seen at the bottom. |
