De Zandbrug (Utrecht) 

Only known example of a woodblock print by this obscured artist who, before finding this print, was only known by his (comic book sized) illustrations for adventurous children. He was closely related to the 1973-77 Dutch socialist prime-minister Joop den Uyl (1919-1987). 

The Zandbrug is an iconic canal bridge in the hart of medieval city centre of Utrecht in the Nethertlands. 


It is fun to compare den Uyl’s print with Else Zinkeisen’s print of the Fernsicht-brücke in Hamburg
