This etching by Jacobus Harrewijn, dated c. 1696-1730, depicts the Admiralty Court in Rotterdam, Netherlands. The building, with its prominent central entrance and symmetrical facade, is the focal point of the scene. The artist's meticulous detail captures the surrounding environment, including a waterway with boats and figures. This work is an excellent example of Dutch 17th-century architectural illustration, offering insight into the urban landscape of the era. The drawing's small size adds to its intimate perspective, highlighting the building's architectural qualities.
