The Old Masters Gallery in Dresden holds a watercolour by Antonio Joli (1700-1744) entitled 'La Sassonia Coronata e Preceduta dalla Polonia'. The work was created in 1740 and depicts an allegorical scene of the coronation of Saxony by Poland on a decorated barge, strongly reminiscent of Baroque design. The symbols of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth are visible on the front of the barge: The White Eagle (Crown) and the Pahon of Lithuania (Grand Duchy of Lithuania).
