De Nieuwegracht oude huizen bij de Hamburgerbrug before 1990

This etching by Dutch artist Dirkje Kuik (1929-2008) depicts the "De Nieuwegracht" canal in Utrecht, Netherlands. The artwork, titled "De Nieuwegracht oude huizen bij de Hamburgerbrug," translates to "The New Canal old houses near the Hamburger Bridge." The print features a series of buildings along the canal, captured in a stylized, almost abstract style. The use of lines and shading creates a sense of depth and texture, highlighting the architectural details of the houses and the atmospheric quality of the scene. Kuik's work often focused on urban landscapes, capturing the essence of Dutch city life through her unique artistic vision.
