About the Item

RARE French 17th-18th Century Enhanced Siege of Graves Mapping Engraving BY William III, also widely known as William of Orange, The Siege of Grave in Dutch Brabant started by Monsieur Carl de Rabenhaupt in July 1674. Carl von Rabenhaupt (6 January 1602 – 12 August 1675) was a Bohemian Hussite nobleman who fought in Dutch and Hessian service during the Thirty Years War and came out of retirement to help the Dutch defend Groningen during the Franco-Dutch War. He made a name for himself as a siege specialist, taking or successfully defending many fortified cities along the Dutch-German border. In July 1674, Rabenhaupt started to invest the French occupied Grave. His force was only strong enough to fully besiege the town when Brandenburg troops reinforced him in August. The garrison under Noël Bouton de Chamilly inflicted heavy casualties on the besiegers and only capitulated on 27 October to Rabenhaupt and Stadtholder William of Orange.
