"Gezicht op Rhenen" (View of Rhenen) is an 1802 drawing by Dutch artist Hendrik Hoogers. Depicting the town of Rhenen, the artwork showcases Hoogers' skill in landscape drawing. The piece, housed at the Rijksmuseum, captures the town's skyline with the prominent church tower, a serene river, and figures relaxing in the foreground. Hoogers' use of subtle shading and detail contribute to the peaceful, almost idyllic atmosphere of the scene. This work is a testament to Hoogers' talent in capturing the beauty of Dutch landscapes.
