This is a 1550 Dutch printed account, issued in Antwerp by Pieter Coecke van Aelst with text by Cornelius Grapheus, of the ceremonial entry of Prince Philip of Spain, son of Emperor Charles V, into Antwerp in 1549. The pictures are black-and-white woodcut designs of ornate triumphal arches, each with classical columns, sculpted reliefs, carved figures and heraldic crests, offering a designer dense Renaissance architectural ornament and scenographic framing to draw on.
