The photograph features a bustling harbor scene with several ships docked at the piers. Jager's photograph provides a glimpse into the bustling maritime activity of Amsterdam during the mid-19th century and offers a historical perspective on the city's transportation infrastructure, specifically focusing on the new Central Station located near the inn.
