This 1842-1844 print by an anonymous artist, titled "Nieuwjaarswens van de torenwachter van de Grote Kerk te Den Haag voor het jaar 1842", depicts a detailed view of the Great Church in The Hague, Netherlands. The image is framed by a decorative border and features the royal crown of the Netherlands. The artwork serves as a New Year’s greeting and includes a poem wishing well for the King of the Netherlands, the Royal Family, and the people of The Hague. This piece, now housed at the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies a popular tradition of New Year's greetings through printed imagery in the 19th century.
