About This Item

[Tavernier], 1636. Print. Near Fine. Matted and ready for framing. Untrimmed. An exceptional example of a scarce print. A 7 x 9 3/4 sheet professionally matted down to 4 3/4 x 6 3/4 (mat measures 8 1/2 x 10 5/8). Beautiful modern hand coloring added. Labeled 15 in the upper right-hand corner. Caussade is a region in southwestern France. The print shows a fortification positioned along a waterway which runs northwest to southeast along the southwest wall. The only entrance is at the northeast corner. There are two curtain walls, the inner one surrounded by a moat. The shapes of the walls illustrate the star-shaped patterns common to this era, an adaptation made to allow for defensive canonry, and to protect against siege artillery.
