Brugje in Katwijk 1888 - 1934

"Brugje in Katwijk" is an etching by Dutch artist Willem Adrianus Grondhout, created between 1888 and 1934. The artwork, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, depicts a small bridge over a canal in Katwijk, a coastal town in the Netherlands. Grondhout's skillful use of etching technique creates a sense of realism and atmospheric depth. The composition focuses on the bridge, with a figure walking across it and a small boat moored in the foreground, capturing the quiet charm of everyday life in the Dutch countryside.
