Engraving of Henry II, Holy Roman Emperor. Bust length portrait inclined right, wearing a crown and holding a sceptre. The portrait sits within an oval border - below is the Latin name and title 'HENRICUS II CLAUDUS' and a Latin and German inscription beginning 'Neguid nimis'. The print has been cut from a series of 65 portraits of French rulers from the sixth to the seventeenth century, all of which were originally plates to Der Könige in Frankreich Leben, Regierung und Absterben: aus bewehrten frantzösischen Geschicht-Schreibern übersetzet und biß auf instehendes 1671 (1671).
