The image shows a historical coat of arms of The United Kingdom on top of the document, with the letters "G" and "R" flanking it. The coat of arms features several traditional elements: - A crowned lion on the left and a unicorn on the right supporting the shield. - The shield itself has various sections with symbols like the three lions passant guardant (representing England), a lion rampant (representing Scotland), and a harp (representing Ireland), among other elements. - Below the coat of arms is a banner with the motto "DIEU ET MON DROIT," which translates from French to "God and my right." Underneath the coat of arms, there is a text block which reads: "London, Printed by John Baskett, Printer to the Kings most Excellent Majesty, And by the Assigns of Thomas Newcomb, and Henry Hills, deceas'd. 1720." This text indicates the publication details, including the names of the printers, their titles, and the year of publication, which is 1720.

The image appears to depict a historically styled printed page, possibly from the early 18th century. At the center lies a coat of arms, flanked by a lion on the left and a unicorn on the right, which are standing on their hind legs and acting as supporters. Above the coat of arms is a ribbon with the inscription "DIEU ET MON DROIT," which is French for "God and my right," a motto often associated with the British monarchy. Between the lion and unicorn, at the top of the shield, is the letter "G" on the left and the letter "R" on the right. These letters usually represent the initials of a monarch (e.g., "Georgius Rex" for King George). Below the shield and supporters, the text reads: "London, Printed by John Baskett, Printer to the Kings most Excellent Majesty, And by the Assigns of Thomas Newcomb, and Henry Hills, deceas'd. 1720." This indicates that the image is a printers' mark or colophon providing details of the printer, John Baskett, who was responsible for the document or book from which this page is taken, along with reference to his rights obtained from his predecessors, and the year of the printing, which is stated as 1720.

This is a British royal printer's mark or colophon from 1720. The image shows the Royal Coat of Arms of Great Britain, featuring a lion and unicorn supporting a shield with royal emblems. Above the shield is a crown, and below is the motto "DIEU ET MON DROIT" (God and my right). The coat of arms has the letters "G" and "R" at the top, likely standing for "Georgius Rex" (King George).
