"Gezicht op Amersfoort vanaf de berg" (View of Amersfoort from the Mountain) is a 17th-century engraving by Thomas Doesburgh depicting the city of Amersfoort in the Netherlands. This detailed view showcases the city's landscape with the prominent church in the background, and an ornate ribbon with the name "Amersfoort" tied around a coat of arms held by cherubs above. The engraving offers an interesting perspective of a Dutch city in the 17th century. This artwork, housed at the Rijksmuseum, provides a glimpse into the artistic and cultural scene of the time. The piece is a fine example of cityscapes and is a valuable historical document of Amersfoort's architectural heritage.
