Roghman rendered the ruins of Honingen Castle with delicate black chalk lines and loose grey wash applied with a brush. He succeeded in merging its remains into the picturesque landscape. The castle suffered much damage during the Eighty Years’ War against the Spanish. The domain was bought by the city of Rotterdam, and the dilapidated castle was torn down in 1672.
