This etching, "Gezicht op de toren Swych Utrecht in Amsterdam," by Dutch artist Jan Goeree (1670-1731), depicts the tower of the "Weigh House" (in Dutch, "De Toegen Swygt of Swygt Utrecht") in Amsterdam. It shows the imposing stone tower with crenellations, surrounded by the urban environment. The detail of the figures in the foreground gives a sense of scale and the tower's presence in the city. This view of the historic structure is a valuable historical document.
