"Kasteel aan een rivier" is an etching by Pieter van der (I) Borcht, a Flemish artist active in the late 16th century. The print, housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a fortified castle situated on a riverbank, with a winding path leading to the main gate. The detailed architectural rendering, typical of Borcht's style, portrays the castle with a high central tower and a complex arrangement of wings and turrets. The surrounding landscape, dotted with trees and figures, adds depth and context to this picturesque scene of a well-defended residence.
