Broadsheet with a representation of a Triumphal Arch in honor of the 200th anniversary of the so-called Augsburg Confession of 1530. The triumphal arch consists of four tiers, crowned by the figure of Christ as Savior on top of an armorial trophy. Represented in the arch are various people who played an important role in the Reformation of the Church. To explain the theological program of the triumphal arch, various blocks of text have been added to the plate.
