This engraving, "Gezicht op de Pieterskerk te Leiden" (View of St. Peter's Church in Leiden), was created by Abraham Delfos in 1762. The artwork depicts the prominent St. Peter's Church in Leiden, Netherlands, with a detailed view of its exterior. Delfos captures the church's architectural features, including its tall spire, arched windows, and surrounding buildings. The engraving is a testament to the architectural beauty of the church and its historical significance to the city of Leiden. The engraving, now located in the Rijksmuseum, is a fascinating example of 18th-century Dutch printmaking and provides a glimpse into the past.
