Created between 1895 and 1898, the artwork showcases the Prins Hendrikkade canal, the imposing St.-Nicolaaskerk church, and a bustling harbor, all from the perspective of the Central Station. The black and white tones add a sense of historical authenticity and allow viewers to imagine the scene's dynamism and grandeur. This cityscapes painting, also known as urban landscape, provides a glimpse into the architecture and transportation of late 19th-century Amsterdam.
