The flagon is engraved with a figure of a lady and two gentlemen dressed in the style of wealthy of Dutch merchants. E. Schliemann in, Die Goldschmiede Hamburgs, Hamburg, 1985, vol. 3, records a similarly engraved tankard also by Johann Sülssen (p. 34, no. 45.) and others by Peter Helle (p. 121) and Hermann Lambrecht (p. 120).
The models for these figures were taken from copperplate engravings or etchings possibly after Pieter Jansz Quast (1605-1647) a Dutch painter well known for his small social genre paintings, later engraved by Salomon Savery, see F. W. H. Hollstein, Dutch and Flemish Etchings, Engravings, and Woodcuts, ca. 1450-1700, Amsterdam, 1949-2010.
