"Voorstraatshaven in Dordrecht" is an etching by Dutch artist Carel Nicolaas Storm van 's-Gravesande. Created between 1880 and 1884, the artwork showcases the artist's skilled use of line and tone to depict the Voorstraatshaven, a canal in the city of Dordrecht, Netherlands. The scene is composed of buildings lining the canal, with a few small boats moored in the water. The artist captures the quiet tranquility of the harbor, focusing on the interplay of light and shadow. The etching is currently part of the collection of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
