This etching by Jan Caspar Philips is a detailed view of Middelburg, a city in the Netherlands, as seen from the southeast. Created between 1744 and 1751, it showcases the city's skyline with its prominent church tower and windmills. Philips, known for his cityscapes, uses a meticulous style to capture the architecture and landscape. This print is a valuable historical record of 18th-century Dutch urban life and is now part of the Rijksmuseum's collection.
