Gezicht op de Leidse poort en schouwburg in Amsterdam 1835

Huib van Hove Bz's "Gezicht op de Leidse poort en schouwburg in Amsterdam" (1835) is a black and white lithograph depicting the Leidsepoort and the Amsterdam City Theatre, the Schouwburg, in Amsterdam. The work provides a detailed view of the two structures in the city's cityscape. The artist captures the architectural details of the buildings, including the arches of the Leidsepoort and the classical facade of the theatre. The scene is further animated by the inclusion of figures and carriages, giving a sense of daily life in 19th-century Amsterdam. The lithograph is an excellent example of the detailed urban landscapes produced by artists of the period.
