This 1856 print by Friedrich Robert Prinz is an architectural illustration of the "Nieuwe Postkantoor" (New Post Office) in Amsterdam. The building, a grand structure with multiple stories and a prominent entrance, is depicted twice in the artwork. Both depictions are framed by elaborate decorative flourishes, typical of the period. This intricate artwork captures the architectural detail of the building, offering a glimpse into 19th-century Amsterdam.
