Beautiful copper engraving from 1755 published by H. Scheurleer F.Z. with a view on the Prinsengracht in The Hague. Offered by Scheurleer to the then mayor of The Hague, Mr. Jan Hudde Dedel.
Old-time coloured and later framed in a classic wooden frame. In the 1980s bought as such at antique store Meurs, Nieuwsteeg 35 in Leiden.
The condition of the copper engraving is good. Good colours, clear image, large size: A beautiful view on a historic part of The Hague.
In the upper half of the copper engraving (the air) some small scratches in the paper can be found. This is only noticeable if you look very closely.
Pickup (in Leiden) is preferred given the vulnerability of the glass and the engraving. Shipping possible, at the buyer’s risk.
