This anonymous etching from 1723 depicts a land battle and a naval battle, part of a larger work entitled "Introduction to Fortification." This detailed engraving is a testament to the importance of military strategy and tactics during this period. The artwork is a valuable piece of historical documentation, capturing the essence of 18th-century warfare. The scene is framed by a banner proclaiming the dedication to the Duke of Burgundy. This image serves as a reminder of the complex and often violent world that existed in the early 18th century.
