Gezicht op de Prinsengracht bij de brug over de Leidsegracht in Amsterdam c. 1890 - 1910

George Hendrik Breitner's "Gezicht op de Prinsengracht bij de brug over de Leidsegracht in Amsterdam," a black and white photograph, captures a bustling scene in Amsterdam around the turn of the 20th century. The image showcases the city's iconic canals and bridges, with a horse-drawn cart and figures crossing the bridge, while buildings line the canal in the background. Breitner, known for his urban scenes and candid portrayal of everyday life, masterfully captures the energy and movement of the city. The photograph, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, offers a glimpse into the daily life of Amsterdam during this period of rapid modernization.
