The intricate details, including the brickwork, window frames, and the stepped entrance, showcase Wenckebach's meticulous style. Created between 1870 and 1926, the drawing reflects the beauty and historical significance of Amsterdam's architectural heritage. The artwork is currently housed at the Rijksmuseum, offering a glimpse into the daily life and urban landscape of the Dutch capital.
