"Illuminatie voor de huizen van H. Muilman en P.A. Hasselaer te Amsterdam, 1788," is an engraving by Dutch artist Jan Lucas van der Beek. It depicts a decorative structure made of light, known as an illumination, erected in front of the houses of H. Muilman and P.A. Hasselaer in Amsterdam on March 8, 1788. The engraving captures the intricate details of the illumination, including its arched design, decorative elements, and figures of people and a carriage. The work, now in the Rijksmuseum, is an interesting example of the celebratory architecture of the 18th century.
