专家说明

On 27 October 1830, Antwerp was overtaken by the conflict of the Belgian revolution. Belgian troops entered the city to fight the Dutch garrison, and in the ensuing battle, the Dutch were driven into the citadel, from where they bombarded the city with shells. Here, Boys depicts the roofless shell of the Priory with both locals and soldiers surveying the damage.
