"IJsvermaak op de Maas te Rotterdam, in de verte de fabriek te Feijenoord" (1855-1861) by Gerardus Johannes Bos depicts a lively scene of ice skating on the Maas River in Rotterdam. The distant factory at Feijenoord, a detail indicative of the emerging industrial landscape, adds a unique context to the scene. This lithograph, now in the Rijksmuseum, captures the traditional Dutch winter pastime amidst the changing urban environment of 19th-century Rotterdam.
