Stadsgezicht met kerk en straatje 1820 - 1896

"Stadsgezicht met kerk en straatje" is a pencil drawing created by Kasparus Karsen between 1820 and 1896. The artwork, currently housed at the Rijksmuseum, depicts a cityscape with a prominent church and a narrow street. The church's architectural details, including its gothic-style spire and intricate stonework, are rendered with precision and delicacy, showcasing Karsen's keen observation of the built environment. The drawing's subtle shading and light washes create a sense of depth and atmosphere, making it an evocative representation of Dutch urban life in the 19th century.
