This etching by Romeyn de Hooghe, created around 1695, depicts the grand residence of David de Pinto on the Sint-Antoniesbreestraat in Amsterdam. The detailed print showcases the impressive facade of the building, with its numerous windows and elaborate ornamentation. It also captures the bustling life around the mansion, including a horse-drawn carriage and figures interacting in the street. De Hooghe's expert use of line and shading creates a sense of depth and realism, making this an invaluable glimpse into 17th-century Amsterdam. The print is now part of the Rijksmuseum's collection, offering art lovers a valuable window into the past.
