This anonymous 19th-century etching, "Gezicht op de Binnen-Amstel vanaf de Blauwbrug," depicts a scenic view of the Binnen-Amstel canal in Amsterdam. The Blauwbrug (Blue Bridge) is prominently featured in the foreground, with bustling pedestrian and horse-drawn carriage traffic. The canal, lined with buildings and a windmill, showcases the city's urban landscape and waterways. The detailed rendering of the bridge and the surrounding cityscape captures the atmosphere of the time, making this etching a valuable historical document of Amsterdam's architectural development.
