EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the picturesque city of Rotterdam in 1826. The artist, David Cox, skillfully captures the essence of this Dutch city with his delicate pencil strokes on paper. The composition showcases a charming scene filled with architectural wonders and historical landmarks. At the center of the image stands an impressive spire, belonging to a grand cathedral that dominates the skyline. Its intricate details are meticulously rendered by Cox's hand, showcasing his keen eye for capturing architectural beauty. Surrounding the cathedral is a bustling square, teeming with life and activity. The drawing exudes an old-world charm as it depicts a time when horse-drawn carriages traversed cobblestone streets and pedestrians strolled along elegant boulevards. Every element within this artwork tells a story - from the towering buildings adorned with ornate facades to the lively atmosphere emanating from its inhabitants. Preserved within Yale Center for British Art's Paul Mellon Collection in America, this piece serves as a testament to Cox's talent and artistic vision. As we gaze upon this remarkable work, we can't help but be transported back in time to experience Rotterdam's rich history and architectural splendor firsthand.
