View of Noordwijk aan Zee, The village of Noordwyk, by the sea, print, printmaker: Hendrik Spilman, c. 1742 - c. 1784, paper, etching, engraving, height 130 mm x width 191 mm, dune coast, prospect of village, silhouette of village, church (exterior), Noordwijk aan Zee, Noordwijk, A wide sepia-toned engraving shows a coastal village viewed from a grassy hillside, with rows of closely packed rooftops and a central building topped by a tower and small flag. The foreground hillside contains textured grasses and a few small figures walking or standing, one with a stick and another seated, and two figures near the left edge standing on a slope looking toward the sea. The middle ground presents houses with steep roofs, chimneys, and fences, and a small herd of grazing animals near a path. In the distant background a calm sea stretches to the horizon with a small sailing vessel and a faint line of ships, while above thin horizontal lines and soft cloud shapes fill the sky.
