Fame and Minerva with the coat of arms of Maria de' Medici, Wenceslaus Hollar, 1639 Canvas Print
Title print with the crowned coat of arms of Maria de' Medici, held by the Fame and Minerva, possibly intended here as patroness of the arts. Both women also hold a banner bearing part of the title. Under an altar with the monogram AM (Alma Mater). There are three crowns on the altar. They symbolize the three children of Maria de' Medici who were on the throne in 1639: Louis was king of France, Elisabeth was queen of Spain and Henrietta Maria was married to Charles I of England. Two young women with stick and mirror hold a laurel wreath above the crowns. The print is part of a book about the reception of the French king-mother Maria de' Medici to England.
