"Belegering van Londonderry en Bonn, 1689" (Siege of Londonderry and Bonn, 1689) is a detailed, two-part engraving by Dutch artist Romeyn de Hooghe. Created in 1689, the artwork depicts two military sieges, one of Londonderry, Ireland, and one of Bonn, Germany, during the Nine Years’ War. The print is a visual record of the conflict and is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, Netherlands. De Hooghe's meticulous detail, including the depiction of soldiers, cannons, and fortifications, highlights the brutality and scale of these military engagements. This artwork is a valuable historical source for understanding the complexities and consequences of the war.
