This anonymous 1710 etching, "Vestingplattegrond van Philippeville," is a detailed plan of the fortified city of Philippeville, located in present-day Belgium. The intricate lines and annotations provide a precise visual representation of the city's defenses, including its bastions, ramparts, and outworks. The plan, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, serves as a valuable historical document for understanding the military architecture and strategic importance of Philippeville during this period.
