"Gezicht op de Dulsie Bridge, over de Findhorn," an 1801-1802 engraving by James Fittler, depicts the Dulsie Bridge in Scotland. This detailed print showcases the bridge's stone arch spanning a rushing river, surrounded by rocky cliffs and lush vegetation. The scene is further animated by figures crossing the bridge, adding a sense of human presence to the picturesque landscape. The work, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a testament to Fittler's skill in capturing the beauty of the natural world through the medium of engraving. This meticulously rendered print exemplifies the enduring allure of landscape art and the timeless appeal of bridges as symbols of connection and passage.
