Sigismund III Vasa, Imitation of a 1622 Cracow Trophy
A rare and interesting imitation of a 1622 Cracow Trophy of Sigismund III Vasa.
The portrait leaves a little to be desired. Style of letters - very similar. Concordance of the titulature. Coat of arms side better. Arrangement and shields of the coat of arms not badly imitate the original. Full correspondence of inscriptions on the reverse. Very nice, rare and interesting imitation.
