Ridders met stormram before 1841

"Ridders met stormram" (Knights with a battering ram), a lithograph by Charles Rochussen, depicts a dramatic scene of a siege, likely from a historical event. The artist uses stark contrasts of light and dark to create a sense of intensity and chaos. The focus is on the struggle of the knights, wielding weapons and climbing ladders in an attempt to breach the fortified walls. The print showcases Rochussen's ability to portray the dynamism of a battle scene, making it a compelling visual representation of historical warfare. This print is part of the Rijksmuseum collection.
