84 Gabriel Bodenehr (1673–1765) – View of Moyenvic, Lorraine – Engraved Print (Early 18th Century)

This engraved view of Moyenvic (Latin: Mediovicus), a fortified town in the bishopric of Metz along the Seille River in Lorraine, was created by Gabriel Bodenehr. The print highlights the town's historical importance due to its saltworks, with a note in German explaining that the fortifications were eventually dismantled. The image shows the bastioned defenses, central church tower, and surrounding marshlands, capturing both the military structure and natural setting. The number “30” in the upper right corner suggests it was part of a larger published series.
Gabriel Bodenehr (1673–1765) was a German engraver and publisher from Augsburg, known for his detailed topographical prints and city views. He came from a family of cartographers and printmakers and contributed to numerous collections illustrating towns and fortresses across Europe. His engravings are notable for their clarity, architectural precision, and historical documentation of early modern urban fortifications.
