About this work

This engraved print shows a funeral procession carrying a body draped over a mule through a ruined classical colonnade, with torch-bearing mourners in hoods and robes. Broken columns, collapsed masonry and a distant arched building frame the scene, and a Latin verse runs along the lower edge. The work is attributed to Maarten van Heemskerck and dated 1569.
