Brug te Mechelen 1901 - 1908

"Brug te Mechelen" (Bridge in Mechelen) is a wood engraving created by Dutch artist Wijnand Otto Jan Nieuwenkamp between 1901 and 1908. The artwork depicts a view of a stone bridge over a river in Mechelen, Belgium. The artist captures the intricate details of the bridge's arches, as well as the flowing water below. The engraving style, characterized by fine lines and delicate shading, creates a sense of depth and texture. This piece showcases Nieuwenkamp's skill in capturing architectural details and the play of light and shadow, typical of his work in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The artwork is a testament to the beauty of everyday scenes and the artistry of wood engraving.
