Jacoba of Bavaria, countess of Holland. Engraving by J. Folkema, 1753, after T. Jelgersma after a painting attributed to J. Mostaert.

Below, a cartouche showing the wedding of Jacoba of Bavaria with one of her wedding partners. On the left, a man wearing foot shackles (Frank van Borselen, on his release from imprisonment between his two weddings with Jacoba?); on the right, perhaps Philip the Good, duke of Burgundy

Device, top left: a heart pierced by an arrow and surrounded by manacles, presumably representing the political and military disruptions of Jacoba's marriages. Device, top right: two doves and a torch on a crown, representing a happy royal marriage (?). In the cartouche below, the wedding altar is decorated with two flaming hearts

There is a pair of paintings by Mostaert in the Statens Museum for Kunst, Copenhagen, of which one painting is identified as a portrait of Jacoba of Bavaria and the other shows a man: these paintings are not a source for the present engravings
