"Newburg [Newburgh] (No. 14 of The Hudson River Portfolio)" is an aquatint by John Hill, completed in 1825. Part of a larger series of landscape views, the artwork depicts a picturesque scene of Newburgh, New York, on the Hudson River. A winding path leads the viewer's eye to the town and its waterfront, while a farmer and ox cart add a sense of scale and human activity. The work is currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
