"Gezicht op Crooswijk" (View of Crooswijk) is an etching by Carel Nicolaas Storm van 's-Gravesande, dating back to 1884. The artwork depicts a serene canal scene with a line of buildings visible behind a thick row of trees on the left and right sides of the image. The water is calm, reflecting the surrounding buildings and sky, and a small boat sits in the middle of the canal. The etching's delicate lines and the detailed rendering of the architecture create a sense of tranquility and realism, showcasing van 's-Gravesande's mastery of the etching technique. This artwork is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, offering visitors a glimpse into the charming Dutch landscape of the late 19th century.
