Pont Neuf te Parijs 1646

"Pont Neuf te Parijs" is an etching by Stefano della Bella, dating back to 1646. The artwork depicts a bustling scene of Parisian life on the Pont Neuf, the first bridge in Paris built entirely of stone. Della Bella's meticulous detail captures the bridge's architectural features, the lively crowd, and the surrounding cityscape. The etching, now part of the Rijksmuseum's collection, exemplifies della Bella's mastery of perspective and his keen eye for the vibrancy of everyday life.
