"Arbeca en andere plaatsen in Catalonië" is a 1701-1733 etching by Abraham Allard (1676-1725) depicting four fortified towns in Catalonia, Spain. The detailed line work, characteristic of 18th-century cartographic prints, provides an aerial perspective of the towns' defensive structures, highlighting their strategic importance during a time of frequent warfare. The artwork, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, offers a glimpse into the military architecture of the region, giving a sense of the historical significance of these Catalan towns.
