EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print captures the pivotal moment in the War of Spanish Succession (1702-1715) when the troops of King Philip V of Spain, led by the French Marshal Villarroel, entered Barcelona on September 11, 1714. The city, a key strategic stronghold, had held out against the besieging forces for over a year. The entry was marked by the use of artillery and mining techniques to breach the city walls, as depicted in this detailed drawing by P. Rigaud and expertly engraved by M. Engelbrecht in 1722. The soldiers are shown making their way through the newly created gaps in the wall, ready to take control of the city. The scene is a testament to the military prowess and determination of Philip V and his allies, who ultimately secured the Spanish throne for him after a long and costly conflict. This historical print is now housed in the Historical Museum of Barcelona in Catalonia, Spain, offering a fascinating glimpse into the past and the complex political landscape of the early 18th century.
