Gezicht op de noordoostzijde van Heidelberg met links Schloss Heidelberg 1784

Abel Schlicht's 1784 artwork, "Gezicht op de noordoostzijde van Heidelberg met links Schloss Heidelberg," captures the picturesque German city of Heidelberg from a bird's-eye perspective. The print, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, showcases Schloss Heidelberg, the city's iconic castle, perched atop a hill overlooking the Neckar River and the sprawling cityscape. Schlicht, known for his detailed and realistic depictions, utilizes a sepia tone to render the scene, emphasizing the city's historical charm.
