"Gezicht op de Hooglandse Kerk te Leiden" (View of the Hooglandse Church in Leiden) is an etching by Abraham Delfos, created in 1762. The detailed depiction of the church's exterior with its towering spire and ornate windows, along with the surrounding streetscape, showcases Delfos's skill in architectural representation. The inclusion of figures in the foreground, such as a carriage and pedestrians, adds a sense of scale and daily life to the scene. The artwork is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. This etching is a valuable historical record of the church and the city of Leiden in the 18th century.
