Drie riviergezichten 1851 - 1924

"Drie riviergezichten" (Three River Views) is a series of etchings by Dutch artist Carel Nicolaas Storm van 's-Gravesande. Created between 1851 and 1924, the series features three distinct scenes of Dutch waterways. The first depicts a bustling cityscape with boats on a river, while the second shows a more tranquil landscape with a sailboat in the distance. The third etching captures a windmill on the riverbank, showcasing a picturesque rural setting. These delicate etchings are notable for their detailed rendering of light and shadow, and they offer a glimpse into the diverse landscapes of the Netherlands. The series is a fine example of Storm van 's-Gravesande's talent for capturing the beauty of his homeland through printmaking. The etchings are housed at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
