Jan II van Bourbon tijdens de belegering van Metz 1776

"Jan II van Bourbon tijdens de belegering van Metz" (1776) is an etching by Benoit Louis Prevost (1747-1804) depicting a historical scene of Jean II, Duke of Bourbon, during the siege of Metz. The small size of the print, 251 mm in height and 192 mm in width, suggests it may have been part of a larger illustrated work, perhaps a book or series of prints dedicated to the House of Bourbon. The scene likely portrays the duke addressing his troops, emphasizing the importance of historical accuracy and the artist's ability to convey military events. This artwork would be of interest to those fascinated by French history, military art, and the visual representation of historical figures.
