En by med en flod 1746

"En by med en flod" (City with a River), an etching by Johanna Fosie, is a detailed portrayal of an urban landscape. Created in 1746, the artwork features a town nestled along a riverbank, with a church spire and numerous houses, all rendered in precise detail. The composition emphasizes the town's relationship with the river, providing a glimpse into the bustling life of 18th-century Denmark. Fosie, a skilled artist, demonstrates her mastery of etching, creating a visually engaging and historically significant work. The piece is now housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, Copenhagen, Denmark.
