"Gezicht op de Binnen-Amstel" is an etching created by Dutch artist Jan van Call in the late 17th century. The print depicts a view of the Amstel River in Amsterdam, with buildings lining the banks and a windmill in the distance. The image includes text in Dutch that translates to "View of the inner Amstel, to the blue bridge." The small size and delicate lines of the etching point to its intended use as a personal decorative piece, offering a glimpse into the cityscape of Amsterdam during Van Call's lifetime.
