Gezicht op Delft 1611 - 1678

"Gezicht op Delft" is a detailed pen and ink drawing created by Flemish artist Jan (II) Brueghel sometime between 1611 and 1678. The drawing depicts a panoramic view of the Dutch city of Delft, showcasing its waterways, canals, and prominent landmarks. Brueghel's use of meticulous detail captures the cityscape's urban fabric, with ships sailing on the water, windmills on the horizon, and the iconic Nieuwe Kerk church towering over the scene. This artwork is a testament to Brueghel's skilled draftsmanship and his ability to portray the bustling urban life of the Dutch Golden Age.
