Frans Hogenberg's "Beleg van Dachstein in de Elzas, 1610," depicts a detailed aerial view of the siege of Dachstein in Alsace, France, during the Thirty Years' War. Created between 1610 and 1612, the engraving showcases Hogenberg's mastery of perspective and architectural detail, capturing the siege's chaos and grandeur. This meticulous work, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, provides a valuable historical record of this significant conflict and the city's defensive fortifications.
