A striking contemporary view of Gray in Franche-Comte by the celebrated court painter Van der Meulen.<br/> <br/>This fine view shows the town of Gray in Franche-Comte built on the banks of the SaÃ´ne River. One of the most important trading towns in Franche-Comte the region became a possession of the Spanish Hapsburgs in 1556. Although some of the region's fortified towns were occupied by France during the Wars of Religion peace and prosperity continued until the advent of the Thirty Years War when the region was ravaged by both Catholics and Protestants.
