"Kermisprent van de Amsterdamse porders voor het jaar 1849" (1849) by Dirk Wijbrand Tollenaar (1808-1858) is a woodblock print that features a depiction of a street scene in Amsterdam. The print is a traditional "kermisprent," a type of broadside advertisement popular in the Netherlands during the 19th century. This particular print was likely intended to be distributed at the 1849 Amsterdam fair, known as the "Kermis." The scene depicts the everyday life of Amsterdammers with the details of a typical Dutch street, including a bridge, cobblestone streets, houses, and figures. This artwork is now part of the Rijksmuseum collection.
