"Gezicht op het Stedelijk Badhuis aan het strand bij Scheveningen" is an 1830 etching by the Dutch artist Charles Onghena depicting the municipal bathhouse on the beach at Scheveningen. This detailed print shows the grand, neoclassical building, flanked by a fence and set against a backdrop of a cloudy sky. In the foreground, a bustling scene unfolds with figures, horses, and carriages. The use of etching, with its intricate lines and subtle shading, captures the architectural details of the bathhouse and the lively atmosphere of the beach. This print offers a glimpse into the seaside life of Scheveningen in the early 19th century.
