This detailed etching by Jacobus Harrewijn, titled "Beleg van Brussel (rechterhelft)", depicts the Siege of Brussels in 1697. The map-like print is a fine example of 17th century cartographic art, with intricate lines representing the city's fortifications and surrounding landscape. Symbolic figures and allegorical elements adorn the top and sides, representing the forces involved in the siege, and the overall composition is a testament to the Dutch artist's meticulous detail.
