Gezicht vanaf het Haagse Bos naar het Voorhout c. 1700

This etching, created by Dutch artist Jan van Call around 1700, depicts a view of the bridge over the canal in The Hague. The bridge, called the "Boschbrug," links the Haagse Bos, a wooded park, to the Voorhout, a historic square. Van Call, known for his detailed engravings of urban landscapes, captures the grandeur of the bridge and the surrounding cityscape. The clear lines and precise detail of the engraving create a sense of realism and historical accuracy, making this work a valuable document of Dutch urban life in the late 17th century.
