The son of the King of Spain and his queen who was the sister of the Holy Roman Emperor Ferdinand was made a cardinal at the age of 10!. Despite the ecclesiastical office he was never ordained to the priesthood; he was more of a soldier at heart. As the Thirty Years War was then in progress Ferdinand undertook the journey to his new posting accompanied by an army and his troops engaged in several battles most notably a victory over the Swedes at Nördlingen. This triumph was celebrated in the pageantry of his entry into Ghent and in the plates here. There is a large folding plate of the Battle of Nördlingen as well as plates showing Ferdinand leading his men and consulting with his ally in the battle the King of Hungary. The decorations for the Joyous Entry were overseen by Peter Paul Rubens court painter to Ferdinand's predecessor as ruler of the Spanish Netherlands the Archduchess Isabella. Rubens 1577-1640 also produced the portraits here of Ferdinand and his father Philip IV of Spain. The triumphal arches and other festive trimmings for Ferdinand's arrival procession are depicted in these plates along with various allegorical scenes of classical subjects from gods to real-life conquerors. The revelries accompanying Ferdinand's arrival including fireworks and theatrical presentations are also pictured. Johannes Meursius unknown
