This anonymous 1783 engraving depicts the facade of the English Orphanage on the Oudezijds Achterburgwal in Amsterdam. The intricate detail of the building's windows, door, and ornate balcony provides a glimpse into the architectural style of the time. The inscription at the bottom indicates the building's purpose and the year it was built, making it a valuable historical document. The print is a testament to the skill of the anonymous engraver and offers a window into the past of Amsterdam.
