Gezicht op Workum en haven van Workum 1786 - 1792

"Gezicht op Workum en haven van Workum" is a pair of etchings by Carel Frederik Bendorp, created between 1786 and 1792. These detailed views capture the town of Workum and its harbor in the Netherlands. The top etching shows the town from a distance, showcasing its buildings, while the bottom etching provides a closer perspective of the harbor, emphasizing the boats and the drawbridge. Bendorp's meticulous attention to detail and his use of light and shadow effectively create a sense of depth and realism, making these etchings valuable historical records of 18th-century Workum. The etchings are currently housed in the Rijksmuseum.
