The caption ties this image to an article called *The Golden Bull*, and the "(2)" suggests it was one of several illustrations made for that piece. The title most often points to the Golden Bull of 1356, the decree in which Emperor Charles IV set out how German princes would elect the Holy Roman emperor, so a feature on that subject would have needed pictures to make a dense constitutional story easier to follow. The record does not name the publication or the artist, so the connection to that document is a reasonable reading rather than a confirmed one. Illustrations like this were a common way to bring political history to general readers.
