Laadplek bij rivier Possibly 1677 - 1696

"Laadplek bij rivier" is an anonymous 17th-century engraving depicting a manual loading dock on a river. The scene, likely from Italy, shows a man working a lever system to load a boat with cargo. This graphic, possibly created between 1677 and 1696, illustrates a common method of moving goods in the era. The image is reminiscent of early industrial drawings and provides a glimpse into the technical practices of the time. The text “Rio Marrana” reveals the location of the dock to be on the Marrana River.
