Omslag voor Arnhem en zijne environs 1827 - 1927

This anonymous, 19th-century title page for a book titled "Arnhem et ses Environs" is a unique example of Dutch printmaking. It displays the title in both Dutch and French, with a small scene of a bridge and a river at the top. The artist uses an elegant script for the text and a detailed but simplified depiction of the bridge and river, possibly symbolizing the beauty of the Arnhem region. It was created by the publisher Desgeliers in Amsterdam and has a print date of 1827. The title page is a visual representation of Arnhem and its surrounding area, using a combination of text and image to showcase the region's significance in the early 19th century.
