Antique print titled 'Hyver. Vue de Santvliet Village de Hollande'. Copper engraving made after a painting by Adriaen van Drever. This is an optical print, also called 'vue optique' or 'vue d'optique', which were made to be viewed through a Zograscope, or other devices of convex lens and mirrors, all of which produced an optical illusion of depth. The print shows a group of people ice skating and playing games. Published by Basset, circa 1780.
