"Beschieten van een kasteel op een heuvel" (1573) by Jost Amman (1539-1591) depicts a dramatic scene of a castle under siege. The woodcut showcases the artist's talent for detail, with numerous cannons firing at the hilltop fortress, soldiers on horseback, and a frightened populace. The piece is framed by a decorative border, showcasing the characteristic ornate style of the period. This artwork, now in the Rijksmuseum, offers a glimpse into the intense realities of warfare in 16th century Europe.
