Zaragosa onder heerschappij van koning Filips V van Spanje gebracht, 1707 1707

This 1707 etching by Dutch artist Pieter Schenk, entitled "Zaragosa onder heerschappij van koning Filips V van Spanje gebracht," depicts a scene of the surrender of Zaragoza to Philip V of Spain during the War of the Spanish Succession. The scene takes place indoors, in a large hall, and the figures are small in relation to the space. The etching is a visual record of a significant event in European history and is a testament to the artistic talents of Pieter Schenk, who died in 1711 at the young age of 51. The etching is on display at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
