Gezicht op Zwolle c. 1631 - 1633

"Gezicht op Zwolle," created between 1631-1633 by Gerard ter Borch (II), is a delicate pen-and-ink drawing depicting a scene of the Dutch city of Zwolle. The drawing, now in the Rijksmuseum, features a detailed rendering of the city's architecture, including the prominent church tower, and showcases the bustling harbor life with several boats and windmills. Ter Borch's precise lines and subtle shading capture the essence of the city and its waterways, offering a glimpse into 17th-century Dutch life.
