The simple pen-and-ink drawing captures the stark silhouette of the tower, accented by surrounding trees. This work exemplifies Haen's meticulous approach to architectural drawing, a prominent genre during the 18th century. Today, it's housed in the Rijksmuseum, offering a glimpse into the history of this now-vanished castle.
