The Sint-Antoniuswaag in Amsterdam c. 1780 - 1790

"The Sint-Antoniuswaag in Amsterdam" is a 1780s oil on canvas by Dutch painter Isaac Ouwater. Depicting a street scene in Amsterdam, the painting showcases Ouwater's talent for capturing the city's architecture and daily life. The Sint-Antoniuswaag, a 16th-century weigh house, stands prominently in the foreground, its red brick facade and unique tower design adding a sense of grandeur to the scene. The painting's composition, with its focus on the weigh house and the bustling street life, is characteristic of Ouwater's work, which often depicted urban settings with a keen eye for detail and atmosphere.
