This etching by Dutch artist Jacobus Harrewijn, created between 1727 and 1734, depicts the Miniemenkerk and Miniemenklooster in Brussels. The detailed view showcases the complex's architecture, including the church with its prominent twin towers and the surrounding cloister buildings. The expansive gardens, designed with intricate geometric patterns, are also prominently displayed. The artist's meticulous attention to detail captures the grandeur and order of this 18th-century monastic complex. The artwork, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, is a valuable historical record of this significant site in Brussels.
