Annotation lo in pencil "Krattenbrug Delfsevaart R'dam"

Frans de Groen does not appear in the well-known overviews of Dutch visual artists. Yet many of his etchings are known, especially of cityscapes of pre-war Rotterdam and Schiedam.
Frans de Groen worked in a romantic realistic style. His annotations are not always entirely correct; there are known etchings by him with different annotations, even different locations. Almost all of his known etchings are signed and annotated in pencil. Some etchings also with monogram or signature in the print
The work depicted is an etching from the collection of "Rijnmond Toen". The etching shows a great resemblance to etching collection no. 041-FG, but it is on a significantly smaller scale and with differences in detail in the image and annotation (man on the bridge; Delftsevaart instead of Delfsevaart). The etching shows the Krattenbrug over the Delftsevaart in the pre-war center of Rotterdam. This part of the center of Rotterdam was completely destroyed during the bombing in 1940.
Annotation in pencil lo in the margin: "Krattenbrug Delfsevaart R.dam"
Signed in pencil ro in the margin.
Monogram lo in print.
