Viertal gravures Arnhem: 1. "Gezigt op den Rijn en de Hunneschans, genomen vóór het landhuis Dunoog". The print was issued circa 1844-1860 by the Arnhem publisher G.W. van der Wiel. The print is part of the series “Scenes from the Surroundings of the City of Arnhem.” Engraved by the well-known engraver Henricus Wilhelmus Couwenberg after an original painting by his elder brother, the landscape painter Abraham Johannes Couwenberg. Subject: Although historical archives sometimes mistakenly link the print to the village of Uddel (due to confusion with the Hunneschans near the Uddelermeer), this image actually shows the wide panorama of the Rhine from the glacial moraine at Landgoed Duno (Heveadorp/Doorwerth). In the far background the silhouette of the Eusebius Church in Arnhem can be recognized. It is a moody night landscape under clear moonlight, complete with an elegant couple strolling in the foreground 17 x 24 cm on the reverse white 2. "De groote Markt, het Princen Hof, Stad huis en Hoofd Kerk te ARNHEM". This print was issued in 1741 in Amsterdam by the famous bookseller and publisher Isaak Tirion. The print was part of the monumental, richly illustrated topographical book series “Hedendaagsche historie of tegenwoordige staat van alle Volken,” specifically the part describing the history and geography of the province of Gelderland. The cityscape was drawn on the spot in 1729 by the renowned topographical artist and designer Cornelis Pronk (lower left noted as C. Pronk ad viv. del. 1729). The refined copper engraving was then elaborated in 1741 by the master engraver Jan Caspar Philips (lower right noted as J.C. Philips fecit 1741). The engraving shows a lively 18th-century view of the Grote Markt in Arnhem. To the left rises the imposing tower of the Sint-Eusebiuskerk (the Main Church), with the church nave next to it, the old Prinsenhof and the historic town hall. In the square a covered market stand is seen and a horse-drawn carriage drives through the center 16x 20 cm on the reverse white fold as issued 3 and 4. two city views of Arnhem and are titled "Aernhem 1630" (top) and "S Jans-Poort te Aernhem" (bottom). These specific prints were issued in 1792 in Amsterdam by the bookseller and publisher Johannes Antonius Crajenschot. The engravings appeared in a later, popular reissue of the monumental historic work “Kabinet van Nederlandsche en Kleefsche Oudheden.” The prints are drawn and engraved by the renowned Northern Dutch printmaker and etcher Abraham Rademaker (lower left noted as A. Rademaker fecit). He completed these detailed etchings originally between 1727 and 1733 for his earlier topographical compendia. Although Rademaker made the prints in the 18th century, they deliberately depict the historical situation of Arnhem around the year 1630 (as noted lower right on both plates). Top image (No. 276 - "Aernhem"): Shows a profile or panorama view of the city of Arnhem from the opposite bank of the Rhine. The silhouette clearly shows the medieval Sint-Walburgiskerk (left) and the large Sint-Eusebiuskerk (center). In the foreground a covered cart with horses is driving by. Bottom image (No. 277 - "S Jans-Poort te Aernhem"): Shows the fortified city wall of Arnhem with on the left the historical Sint-Janspoort and the corresponding drawbridge over the moat. Dimensions: 7 x 10 cm on the reverse white 5. "Ontmoeting van een Patrouille Burgers en Militairen, 's nagts, in de turfstraat te ARNHEIM". This print was issued circa 1790 in Amsterdam by the well-known publisher Johannes Allart. The print was part of the extensive historical book series “Vaderlandsch Woordenboek” by Jacobus Kok. The engraving is produced by the prominent Amsterdam engraver Reinier Vinkeles (lower right noted as Reiner Vinkeles, sculp.) after an original design by the historical painter Jacobus Buys (lower left noted as J. Buys, ad viv. del.). Historical event: The print illustrates a true political incident in Arnhem on the night of 2 August 1784. This was the tumultuous period of the conflict between the Patriots (who sought more democratic influence for citizens) and the Orangists (supporters of stadtholder Willem V). 14 x 9 cm See the photos for a good impression; part of the description will be sent by registered mail
