EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the picturesque scene of the Houses of the Franc Bateliers and Church of St. Nicholas on the Canal at Ghent in 1845. Created by British artist William Callow, this pencil and watercolour masterpiece showcases his exceptional talent for capturing urban landscapes.

The fine details and delicate brushstrokes bring life to each figure, from men and women to children playing nearby. The towering church stands proudly amidst the row of charming houses, creating a harmonious blend of architectural beauty. Callow's use of gum arabic adds depth and texture to the watercolour, enhancing its ethereal quality. The composition exudes tranquility as sailboats gracefully glide along the calm waters, adding a touch of nautical charm to this enchanting scene.
