This 1891 engraving, by an anonymous artist, depicts the facade of the Dutch Booksellers' Guild building in Amsterdam. The detailed drawing, likely created for a publication, showcases the building's intricate architectural design, characterized by elaborate ornamentation and a blend of historical styles. The inscription identifies the building as situated on the Raadhuisstraat, offering a glimpse into the urban context of this prominent Dutch institution. The artwork's focus on architectural detail makes it a valuable historical record and a testament to the artistic sensibilities of the late 19th century.
