This print, created by Dirk Schuurman between 1786 and 1793, is a detailed roster for the organization of the Amsterdam infantry. It is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum. The print lists the names of the officers, soldiers, and other personnel of the infantry, along with their ranks and duties. It provides a glimpse into the military organization of Amsterdam in the late 18th century. The text is in Dutch and the print has a very formal and functional style common to military documents of the period.
