Notes This Brussels tapestry panel called Ambush depicts the Earl of Orkney’s campaign. It is one out of a series of tapestry panels known as the “Art of War” first made in the 1690s. This panel was commissioned by the Duke of Marlborough showing the war of Spanish Succession and were copied for his generals. The tapestry was designed by Lambert de Hondt (II) and probably woven by the workshop of Gaspar van der Borcht (1675-1742) and Hieronymous le Clerc (c. 1655-1722), workshop
