Carel Nicolaas Storm van 's-Gravesande's "Gezicht op de Alte Brücke in Frankfurt am Main" (c. 1872) is a detailed etching depicting the Alte Brücke (Old Bridge) in Frankfurt, Germany. The artwork showcases the bridge, spanning the river, with buildings lining the banks, and a barge being pulled by a horse in the foreground. This etching, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a fine example of Storm van 's-Gravesande's mastery of the medium, capturing the urban landscape with precise detail and atmospheric nuance.
