"Gezicht op Venetië" is an anonymous 17th-century, hand-colored engraving of a panoramic view of Venice. The print was likely created between 1639 and 1717 and depicts the city from the water, showcasing its numerous buildings, boats, and bustling activity. The detailed perspective and the use of color create a sense of depth and realism, capturing the beauty and grandeur of Venice during its golden age. Now in the Rijksmuseum, this artwork is a valuable example of 17th-century cartography and Dutch art.
