Gondel bij een brug over een kanaal in Venetië c. 1914 - 1919

"Gondel bij een brug over een kanaal in Venetië" (Gondola by a bridge over a canal in Venice) is an etching by Willem Witsen, a Dutch painter and graphic artist. Created between 1914-1919, this piece depicts a typical Venetian scene: a narrow canal with a bridge, lined with buildings, and a gondola with its passengers. The scene is captured in a realistic, almost photographic manner, with Witsen's expertise in etching creating a detailed and atmospheric portrayal. Currently held at the Rijksmuseum, the artwork offers a glimpse into the beauty and everyday life of Venice in the early 20th century.
