"Kermis-Wensch" (1837) by Jacob Coldewijn is a black and white engraving depicting a street scene in Amsterdam, Netherlands. This kermis print, which is a type of broadside, was meant to be distributed to citizens in Amsterdam. The image shows a group of figures, likely lamplighters, walking along a street with buildings and a canal in the background. The engraving is now in the collection of the Rijksmuseum. The artwork is a great example of a print that was used to inform and entertain the people of Amsterdam.
