EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "View of Antwerp from the River Schelde" transports us back in time to the bustling cityscape of 17th century Antwerp. Captured by the talented Flemish artist Jan Wildens, this masterpiece offers a glimpse into the vibrant trade and maritime activity that once defined this historic Belgian port. The image showcases a picturesque scene along the riverbank, where ships gracefully sail upon the glistening waters of the River Schelde. The landscape is dotted with charming quays and buildings adorned with crowstepped roofs and towering spires, reflecting both architectural elegance and practicality. Intriguingly, horses can be seen trotting along a cobblestone street, adding an element of liveliness to this otherwise serene panorama. The intricate details captured by Wildens bring every aspect of this painting to life – from each individual horse's stride to every meticulously designed gable on display. As we delve deeper into this artwork, it becomes apparent that it not only serves as a visual feast but also acts as a historical document showcasing Antwerp's significance as a hub for international trade during its golden age. This print allows us to marvel at how commerce thrived within these very streets centuries ago. Bridgeman Images has expertly preserved and reproduced this remarkable piece through their fine art printing techniques. By bringing together history enthusiasts and art lovers alike, they ensure that such masterpieces continue to inspire awe for generations to come.
