Gezicht op de stad Lissabon 1657

"Gezicht op de stad Lissabon" (View of the City of Lisbon) is an anonymous 17th century engraving showing a bird's-eye view of the Portuguese capital. The detailed depiction of the city's layout, including its fortifications, buildings, and harbor, makes it a valuable historical document. The image also offers a glimpse into the city's life at the time, with ships sailing in the harbor and buildings lining the streets. The engraving, now housed at the Rijksmuseum, provides a fascinating glimpse into Lisbon's history and urban development.
