This etching by Carel Frederik Bendorp, dating back to the late 18th century, depicts two scenes from the Dutch town of Purmerend. The top panel showcases the church and market square, while the bottom panel offers a view of the orphanage. The detailed engravings offer a glimpse into the architectural styles and daily life of the town during this period. Bendorp's meticulous attention to detail and the use of perspective create a sense of realism, making this piece an important document of Dutch urban life in the 1700s. The artwork is currently held by the Rijksmuseum.
