This anonymous woodcut print, titled "Nieuwjaarswens van de torenwachters van de Zuiderkerk te Amsterdam" (New Year's Wish of the Tower Guards of the Southern Church in Amsterdam), depicts the Zuiderkerk in Amsterdam. The print features a view of the church tower, with the inscription around the tower's edge. The scene depicts a bustling city square, with figures walking past the tower's base, and a dog standing near the center of the scene. The inscription is written in Dutch and contains the New Year's wishes from the tower guards to the citizens of Amsterdam. This print is a fine example of 19th-century Dutch graphic art, now located in the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam.
