"Gezicht op Dijon" is an 18th-century etching by Dutch artist Hendrik Roosing, depicting a panoramic view of the city of Dijon, France. Created between 1786 and 1826, the print showcases Roosing’s detailed approach to capturing architectural features and natural landscapes. The artwork's focus on the city's skyline, including the prominent spires of the Notre Dame Cathedral, is a testament to Roosing's skill in depicting urban environments. The etching, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, provides a glimpse into the cityscape of Dijon during the late 18th and early 19th centuries.
