Léopold Flameng's 1859 etching "Gezicht op de woning van Rembrandt in de Jodenbreestraat in Amsterdam" depicts a bustling street scene in Amsterdam. The viewer's eye is drawn to the left side of the etching, where a group of figures stand in front of a building - Rembrandt's former home. The etching captures the atmosphere of a busy street, with people going about their daily business. The detailed architectural style of the building, and the busy street scene make this a significant work of the artist.
