Spanjaarden in een veldslag 1633

This etching, “Spanjaarden in een veldslag” by Johann Wilhelm Baur, depicts a battle scene, likely a moment from the Eighty Years’ War. The 1633 print showcases a group of Spanish soldiers firing upon a row of fallen enemies, captured in a moment of heightened drama. This small-scale work, which measures only 106mm by 139mm, highlights the meticulous detail and dynamic composition that characterize Baur’s artistic style. The etching can be seen at the Rijksmuseum, offering a glimpse into the artistic and historical context of 17th century Europe.
