Etching by Hendrik de Laat of the Diepstraat in Den Bosch. After the war, the houses on the Diepstraat were gradually demolished. Eventually, the Diepstraat disappeared completely. The Diepstraat was located between Sluis 0 and Windmolenbergstraat. The tower in the middle of the etching is from the Sint-Anthoniuskapel.
The etching is of excellent quality and is very stylishly framed.
It is a posthumous printing.

He captured many city and village views that would often disappear or change drastically later. His style had the characteristics of the painters of the Hague School, whom he greatly admired.
