"Gezicht op een deel van de vestingwal van Gorinchem" is an etching created by Carel Frederik Bendorp between 1786 and 1792. It depicts a view of the city walls of Gorinchem, Netherlands, with several boats and figures on the shore, a windmill in the background, and cloudy skies above. The etching, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, demonstrates Bendorp's keen attention to detail and skill in capturing the everyday life of a Dutch city. This artwork is a valuable historical document, offering a glimpse into the fortified cityscape and port activities of Gorinchem in the late 18th century.
