This print, created between 1914 and 1919, depicts a tranquil scene of a canal in Amsterdam, showcasing the artist's fascination with the city's unique waterways. The composition focuses on the archway of a bridge, framing the water and two boats, while the reflection of the archway in the water adds a sense of depth and tranquility to the artwork.
