[True depiction of the town of Magdeburg, as the same was, by his Excellency Lord Count of Tilly as Imperial general, in the year 1631, May 20th, 7 am, conquered and taken by storm; in which context with sword, arms and fire, about 30,000 souls in a few hours miserably perished. Such damage can be ascribed to none but their disobedience.

Further development will be given by time. At Augsburg, by Daniel Manasser, engraver. 1632.] Cartouche top left:

Licensing

This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

The author died in 1637, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
