The image, numbered at the top right as 183, captures the essence of public festivities during this solemn occasion. The artist, Jan Luyken, renowned for his exceptional talent in etching and paper artistry, skillfully brings to life the scene that unfolded in Amsterdam in 1682.

As we delve into the details depicted within this masterpiece, we witness a vibrant portrayal of Persian traditions and customs during this feast.

This print not only immortalizes an important historical moment but also symbolizes unity among different communities residing in Amsterdam. While appreciating this remarkable artwork from the Liszt Collection, it is essential to acknowledge its significance beyond commercial use.
