Gezicht op de kasteleinswoning van Huis ten Bosch after 1717

This anonymous etching, created after 1717, depicts a view of the gatehouse of the Huis ten Bosch palace in The Hague. The image showcases the building's classical architecture, with its symmetrical facade and elegant arched entrance. The surrounding landscape is characterized by manicured gardens and a long, straight path leading to the gatehouse, a hallmark of Dutch formal gardens. The etching offers a glimpse into the grandeur and refinement of 18th-century Dutch life and serves as a valuable historical record of this significant architectural landmark.
