Bombardement van Geldern, 1703 1727 - 1729

"Bombardement der Stadt Geldern, door de troepen der Koninck van Pruissen" (Bombardment of the City of Geldern, by the troops of the King of Prussia) is an etching by Jan van Huchtenburg, depicting a military scene of the 1703 bombardment of Geldern. The scene shows a panoramic view of the battlefield, with soldiers, smoke, and cannons, all detailed with meticulous precision, which was common in Dutch Golden Age art. This work was created between 1727 and 1729 and now resides in the Rijksmuseum.
