Probably based on engravings by Georg Philipp Rugendas the Elder (1666 – 1742) or Paul Decker (1685-1742) with scenes from the War of the Spanish Succession.
The War of the Spanish Succession lasted from the death of Charles II, the last of the Spanish Hapsburg kings, in 1700 until peace was concluded in 1714. It provided a rich source of battles celebrated in paintings, tapestries and engravings after numerous artist such as Rugendas and Paul Decker (1685-1742).[i]
[i] See Cassidy-Geiger 1989 for a service on Meissen porcelain attributed to Ignaz Preissler in the Metropolitan Museum of Art with scenes after Paul Decker.
