" 't Huys te Goudesteyn tot Maerseveen" is an etching and engraving by Carel Allard, dating from 1660 to 1693, that depicts the Dutch country house known as Goudestein. This is just one plate from the series, "Tooneel Der Voornaamste Nederlands Huizen, En Lust Hoven, Naar T Leven Afgebeeld," which showcased prominent Dutch country houses and gardens. The perspective in the image is taken from the road leading to the house, giving a sense of its grandeur. The detail of a carriage and figures in the foreground adds a sense of scale and activity to the scene, while the surrounding trees provide a picturesque setting. This print offers a glimpse into 17th-century Dutch architecture and landscape design.
