"Brug over de Theems in Londen" (Bridge over the Thames in London) is an etching by Willem Adrianus Grondhout, created between 1888 and 1934. The artwork, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a serene scene of a bridge spanning the Thames River in London, with buildings lining the banks. The etching's delicate lines and tonal contrasts evoke the atmosphere of the city, capturing the essence of urban life in late 19th-century London. The small format of the work, measuring 99 mm in height and 216 mm in width, creates an intimate and focused view of the cityscape. Grondhout's masterful use of etching techniques showcases his artistic skills and his ability to convey a sense of time and place through his work.
