"Stadsgezichten van Amsterdam" is a series of twelve etchings by Hendrik Moolenyzer, completed between 1792 and 1847. These detailed black and white prints depict various landmarks of Amsterdam, including the "Hoogk Sluis" (High Sluice), the "Utrechtse Poort" (Utrecht Gate), and the "Haring Pakkers Toorn" (Herring Packers Tower). The collection is a valuable historical record of the city's architecture and urban landscape in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Now located in the Rijksmuseum, this series offers a glimpse into Amsterdam's past and a fascinating example of early Dutch printmaking.
