"Gezicht op Culemborg" is an etching by Gaspar Bouttats, created in 1674. This detailed print depicts a panoramic view of the Dutch town of Culemborg, showcasing its architecture, fortifications, and surrounding landscape. The etching's long, narrow format emphasizes the city's sprawling layout, with a prominent church tower and surrounding buildings visible in the foreground. Bouttats, known for his precise engravings of cityscapes, captures the essence of Culemborg's urban environment with meticulous detail, offering a glimpse into the town's life in the 17th century. This work is now part of the Rijksmuseum collection.
