Gezicht op een buitenplaats, mogelijk te Mortsel 1873 - 1913

"Gezicht op een buitenplaats, mogelijk te Mortsel" is a black and white etching by Willem Philip van der Veken, created between 1873 and 1913. The etching, measuring 219 mm in height and 300 mm in width, depicts a grand, two-story house with a traditional facade, surrounded by lush greenery. The artist's signature, "W. Vander Veken", is visible in the lower right corner. The title suggests a possible location of the house, Mortsel, a municipality in Belgium. This piece showcases van der Veken's skill in capturing architectural detail and atmospheric nuance through the art of etching, a technique that involves using an acid to create an image on a metal plate.
