"Gezicht op Kasteel Westerbeek" (View of Westerbeek Castle) is an etching by Cornelis Elandts, dating from between 1663-1670. The print depicts the castle from a distance, nestled within a landscape of trees and a winding path. Elandts's use of line and shadow to create the image of the castle and its surrounding environment is typical of Dutch etching of the 17th century. The print is a small work, measuring just 104mm in height and 163mm in width, which makes it a detailed and intimate portrayal of the castle.
