Interesting how the artist painted over a photo of the city but then expanded the hills to the right tremendously. Many of the structures, including the bridge weren't constructed until after this siege.

Man, I can't even see the "hills to the right" whether tremendously or non-tremendously! What giveth, m'lord?

Theory..?

I didn't see any of that while I was trying to figure out why they had anti-aircraft emplacements at the siege, nevermind how they got them to the site or why they needed them at all. 🤔
