"Huizen aan het water in Semarang" is an etching by Dutch artist Wijnand Otto Jan Nieuwenkamp. Dated between 1899 and 1910, it depicts a scene from Semarang, Indonesia. The composition features a group of buildings clustered together, with a prominent tower rising above the rooftops. The artist's attention to detail and use of light and shadow create a sense of depth and atmosphere. This work is a valuable document of life in Semarang during the colonial era. Nieuwenkamp's depictions of architecture and scenes from Southeast Asia contribute to our understanding of the region's history and artistic traditions.
