Summary: 

Print shows an interior with columns where a man and woman, probably a royal couple, stand on a carpet in the center surrounded by attendants; at far left a group of armed guards or soldiers are standing, an archway is visible in the background; the figure of Fame flies in a cloud over the central pair bearing a trumpet in each hand, and below are two conjoined coats of arms surmounted by a crown; a thin arched line encloses the design above, indicating that it was probably intended as a design for a fan.
