The work belongs to a series documenting the ceremonial entry of Emperor Charles V into Bologna for his coronation in 1530. Hogenberg provides a precise visual record of the figures, their attire, and the trappings of their horses, reflecting the formalised nature of sixteenth-century state pageantry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe composition is arranged in a linear fashion, typical of processional friezes from this period. The figures move from left to right, their postures and the positioning of their mounts creating a sense of forward momentum. Hogenberg employs a clear, descriptive line to define the forms, using hatching to suggest volume and texture in the garments and the musculature of the horses. The background remains largely empty, focusing the viewer's attention entirely on the participants of the procession.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a historical document, this print offers insight into the visual culture of the Habsburg court. The heralds are depicted with individualised features, suggesting that these may have been portraits of specific officials present at the event. The inclusion of the Latin label 'HERALDI' at the bottom confirms the subject matter, while the numbering indicates its place within a larger sequence of plates. This print is a fine example of the technical skill involved in early etching, where the artist had to balance the demands of reportage with the aesthetic requirements of the print medium. The work remains a valuable resource for those interested in the history of costume, courtly ceremony, and the development of printmaking techniques during the Northern Renaissance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/es\/products\/bazuinen-plaat-n-nicolaas-hogenberg\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eBazuinen, plaat N by Nicolaas Hogenberg\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/es\/products\/marie-de-medici-in-her-carriage-surrounded-by-courtiers-pieter-nolpe\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eMarie de Medici in her Carriage, Surrounded by Courtiers by Pieter Nolpe\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/es\/collections\/nicolas-hogenberg\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#2a555a;border:1px solid #2a555a;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#ffffff;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eMore by Nicolas Hogenberg →\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Nicolas Hogenberg","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59462729761103,"sku":null,"price":37.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59462734840143,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59462734872911,"sku":null,"price":55.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59462734905679,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59462734938447,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59462734971215,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59462735003983,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59462735036751,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59462735069519,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59462735102287,"sku":null,"price":99.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59462735135055,"sku":null,"price":99.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59462735167823,"sku":null,"price":99.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Herauten-plaat-14-Heraldi-_Poster_CompositorV1_1792128474563.jpg?v=1794364564","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/es\/products\/herauten-plaat-14-heraldi-nicolaas-hogenberg","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
