"Gezicht op de Seine te Parijs met links het arsenaal" (View of the Seine in Paris with the Arsenal on the left) is a 1655 etching by Matthäus Merian, now housed in the Rijksmuseum. The artwork depicts a picturesque scene of the Seine river with a bustling cityscape in the background. The foreground features a tree and several figures, while boats are seen traversing the river.
