63 Antique Etching – "View of Antwerpen" (1898)
This finely detailed etching captures a historic view of Antwerp (Antwerpen), featuring the city skyline with its iconic Cathedral of Our Lady and the Schelde River in the foreground, dotted with sailing boats. The scene reflects the city’s rich maritime history and its significance as a major European port.
Executed in 1898, this etching belongs to a tradition of topographical city views, reminiscent of earlier works by Matthäus Merian and Frederik de Wit, yet crafted with the refined techniques of late 19th-century etchers. The precise linework and depth of shading highlight both the architectural grandeur of Antwerp and its bustling river activity, making this piece a valuable addition for collectors of urban landscapes, maritime scenes, or Belgian historical prints.
