"Verovering van Susa, 1707" (1712-1715) by Johann August Corvinus (1683-1738) depicts the capture of Susa during the War of the Spanish Succession. The elaborate Baroque-style engraving, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, showcases a detailed battle scene framed by decorative flourishes. Corvinus's intricate work, often incorporating historical events, is a testament to the artistic and intellectual currents of the early 18th century.
