"Gezicht op de kerk en het rechthuis van Hilversum na de brand van 1766" is an anonymous etching from the late 18th century depicting the ruins of a church and courthouse in Hilversum, Netherlands, following a fire in 1766. The print shows the buildings in a state of disrepair, with the church's tower still standing but its roof gone, and the courthouse reduced to rubble. The etching is a testament to the devastating impact of the fire and serves as a visual record of the event for posterity. The artwork is a fine example of 18th-century Dutch printmaking and is currently housed at the Rijksmuseum.
