"Belegering en Ontzetting der Stad LEYDEN" (The Siege and Relief of the City of Leiden) is an 1814 - 1830 woodcut by Barend (III) Koene depicting scenes from the Siege of Leiden. The artwork is comprised of six separate panels, each depicting a different moment in the siege, all with accompanying text in Dutch. The work is a visual narrative of this critical moment in Dutch history and is a fascinating example of 19th-century woodcut printing.
