"Gezicht op de Theems bij nacht" (View of the Thames at night) is a print by Carel Christiaan Antony Last, a Dutch artist known for his landscapes. The print, created between 1842 and 1887, depicts a tranquil scene along the Thames River. A small rowboat with two figures is positioned in the foreground, adding a sense of scale and human interaction. The scene is dominated by lush greenery, with a prominent building on the right bank, indicating a settled and affluent neighborhood. The print's muted tones and meticulous detail are characteristic of the 19th-century Romantic movement, capturing the serene beauty of the English countryside. This print is currently part of the Rijksmuseum collection in Amsterdam.
