"Toledo" by Franz Hogenberg is a notable historical artwork that captures the cityscape of Toledo, Spain, during the 16th century. Franz Hogenberg (1535–1590) was a German engraver and artist known for his detailed city maps and landscapes, and his work on the Civitates Orbis Terrarum, a seminal atlas of city maps and views considered one of the earliest examples of urban cartography.

The piece "Toledo" is part of this collection and is a testament to Hogenberg's skill in engraving and his contribution to the cartographic and topographic arts. The work is characterized by its meticulous attention to detail, offering a panoramic view of the city that was once the capital of the Spanish Empire. It showcases the city's strategic position atop a rugged promontory, encircled by the Tagus River, and highlights notable architectural features of the time, including the Alcázar, the Cathedral, and the city's medieval walls.

As a historical document, "Toledo" by Franz Hogenberg provides valuable insights into the urban layout and the architectural heritage of Toledo in the Renaissance period. It serves as a cultural artifact that reflects the city's significance as a political, economic, and religious center in Spain's history. The engraving is not only an important piece for historians and art enthusiasts but also for those interested in the evolution of urban planning and the representation of cities in art.

The artwork remains an important reference for scholars studying the history of cartography and urban representation in art. It is also of interest to those who study the history and development of Toledo itself, providing a snapshot of the city at a time when it was a hub of cultural and intellectual activity in Europe. As with many of Hogenberg's works, "Toledo" is appreciated for its aesthetic qualities as well as its historical value, and it continues to be studied and admired in the context of Renaissance art and early modern European history.
