The work belongs to a series of prints capturing the procession, a political event of considerable weight during the Dutch Golden Age. Maria de' Medici, the exiled Queen Mother of France, sought refuge in the Netherlands, and her arrival was marked by elaborate public displays.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe composition follows a linear arrangement, typical of seventeenth-century processional prints. Martens de Jonge focuses on the mounted figures, specifically the cavalry and officials accompanying the royal guest. The riders are depicted in profile or three-quarter view, wearing the fashionable attire of the period, including wide-brimmed hats adorned with feathers and structured doublets. The horses are rendered with attention to their movement, their postures suggesting a steady, rhythmic pace across the frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTechnically, the etching employs fine, controlled lines to define the forms of the riders and the texture of their garments. The background remains largely empty, a common convention in such documentary prints to ensure the viewer focuses on the figures themselves. A small cartouche in the upper left corner, marked with the number four, identifies this as a specific plate within the larger series. The artist, Jan Martens de Jonge, was active in the mid-seventeenth century and is known for his ability to record contemporary events with precision. This print offers a clear view into the visual culture of the Dutch Republic, where public pageantry was often recorded through the medium of printmaking to circulate news and maintain historical records. The work provides a direct, unadorned account of the event, prioritising clarity and narrative sequence over atmospheric effects.\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=\"\/products\/apotheosis-of-hercules-giovanni-domenico-tiepolo\" 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;\"\u003eApotheosis of Hercules - Giovanni Domenico Tiepolo — Giovanni Domenico Tiepolo\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/portrait-of-charles-i-of-england-anthony-van-dyck\" 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;\"\u003ePortrait of Charles I of England - Anthony van Dyck — Anthony van Dyck\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Jan Martszen de Jonge","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58676666663247,"sku":null,"price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58676705067343,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58676705100111,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58676705132879,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58676705165647,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58676705198415,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58676705231183,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58676705263951,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58676705296719,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58676705329487,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58676705362255,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58676705395023,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/De-intocht-van-Maria-de-Medici-te-Amsterdam-in-1638-plaat-4-_Poster_CompositorV1_1788546407182.jpg?v=1788547409","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/products\/de-intocht-van-maria-de-medici-te-amsterdam-in-1638-plaat-4-jan-martens-de-jonge","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
