"Gezicht op de Lutherse Kerk, te Mannheim" (View of the Lutheran Church in Mannheim) is an etching by the Klauber brothers, a pair of 18th-century German artists, and was created in 1782. It depicts a long, detailed view down a street in Mannheim, with the prominent Lutheran Church in the foreground. The etching is notable for its precise detail and use of perspective, which creates a strong sense of depth and realism. This work exemplifies the 18th-century interest in topographical views, which were often commissioned to document cities and important buildings. This particular print is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
