Opblazen van de schipbrug van Parma over de Schelde, 1585 1670 - 1699

"Opblazen van de schipbrug van Parma over de Schelde, 1585" is an etching by Dutch artist Romeyn de Hooghe, created between 1670 and 1699. It depicts a scene of chaos and destruction during the Eighty Years' War, specifically the explosion of a bridge built by the Spanish general Alessandro Farnese over the Scheldt River. This dramatic, detailed scene captures the impact of the blast as it sends soldiers and debris flying through the air. The etching is currently part of the collection of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
