Gezicht op Bergen op Zoom 1740

"Gezicht op Bergen op Zoom" is an etching by Dutch artist Jan Caspar Philips, depicting a panoramic view of the city of Bergen op Zoom, Netherlands. Created in 1740, the artwork showcases a detailed, if somewhat idealized, view of the city's skyline, surrounded by fields and a large tree on the right. The skyline is composed of church spires and buildings, with a coat of arms in the foreground indicating the city's identity. This print, currently part of the Rijksmuseum collection, is an excellent example of 18th-century Dutch cityscape depictions.
