Beautiful view on the Korte Vijverberg, next to the Hofvijver in The Hague. On the right-hand side Peter Post’s ‘Het Mauritshuis’. A glimpse on the eighteenth century The Hague. Curious are the trees at the end of the street on the left, marking the area of the actual Plein. On the other side of the street is an enclosed garden, where nowadays is the Parliament (Tweede Kamer).

Inscribed at bottom in four languages: ‘Conspectus piscinae brevioris; juxta hortos Sagittarioru Hagae Comitis. Vue vers le vivier vers le jardin des Fireurs, a la Haye. Gesicht bij de Doelen over de Korte Vijverberg; tot Gravenhaghe. Gesicht gegen den kleinen fischteich beij den Schützen Garten zu Grafenhaag.’

Trimmed within plate mark, therefore the inscription ‘ Med. Fol. No. 19. Cum Gratia en Privilegio Sac: Caes: Majestatis. Georg Balthasar Probst. Excud. A.V.’ is missing.

SKU: 65084

Etching and engraving on paper, trimmed within plate; total: 292 x 395 mm. Folding crease in the middle, smudges and other creases along the borders and on the corners especially.
