Stadsgezicht c. 1828 - 1897

"Stadsgezicht" is a pencil sketch by Dutch artist Adrianus Eversen, dating from sometime between 1828 and 1897. The work depicts a city scene, most likely in the Netherlands, with a focus on a group of buildings viewed from a slightly oblique angle. Eversen's use of loose, gestural lines creates a sense of immediacy and captures the essence of the city's architecture. Eversen's style is indicative of the Romantic period in art, which emphasized emotion and the individual's connection to nature, and he may have been inspired by the cityscape's inherent drama and beauty.
