This hand-colored etching, created by Willem van Senus in 1824, depicts the "Tsaar Peterhuisje" in Zaandam, Netherlands. The small brick building, with its distinctive arched openings and tiled roof, is a reminder of Peter the Great's visit to the Netherlands in 1697. Van Senus's detailed depiction captures the architectural features and the surrounding landscape, making it a valuable historical document. The artwork, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of the Russian Tsar in Dutch history.
