This anonymous etching from 1760 depicts the Sint-Ceciliaklooster, a former convent in Amsterdam. The image shows an aerial view of the convent, framed by a decorative border with draped curtains. Below, a ground-level perspective reveals the convent's exterior, with its prominent steeple and surrounding buildings. This detailed etching offers a glimpse into 18th-century Amsterdam architecture and the history of the Sint-Ceciliaklooster.
