Veere (original title on object), print, The Zeeland city of Veere with the town hall to the right of the center., printmaker: Willem Adrianus Grondhout (signed by artist), 1919, paper, etching, intaglio printmaking technique, height 159 mm x width 307 mm, city-view, and landscape with man-made constructions, A wide landscape etching shows a village scene with a tall, ornate church tower rising above clustered rooftops and trees along the middle ground, the tower featuring a pointed spire and decorative tiers. In the foreground an open field with gently undulating ground leads toward the village, with a solitary figure walking along a path. Scattered small houses and outbuildings line the horizon, interspersed with dense groups of trees rendered in sketchy, textured lines. The sky above is mostly empty with faint, wispy cloud-like pencil marks and some light hatchwork, and the entire image is framed by a simple rectangular border.
