Vienna, 27 February 1717. 1 p. in-folio. Prince Eugene was one of the men who marked the 18th century: he spent his entire career in the service of Austria, distinguished himself against the Turks (he enabled the takeover of Hungary and Belgrade) and against France in the War of the Spanish Succession. He negotiated the peace of Rastatt (1714) and later played a role as a respected political advisor to the emperor. He was also an art and books lover. One of the most powerful figures in the Netherlands, the Duke of Ursel was descended from two wealthy Antwerp merchant families who served Spain and then Austria in the administration and the army.
