The Steeple in the Village by the Sea n.d.

"The Steeple in the Village by the Sea" is an etching by Dutch Golden Age artist Anthonie Waterloo, created sometime during his lifetime (1610-1690). The print depicts a small village nestled along a waterway, with a prominent church steeple dominating the skyline. The scene is rendered in detailed, delicate lines characteristic of the artist's style. The artwork is now housed at the Art Institute of Chicago and is a fine example of 17th-century Dutch landscape etching.
