Twee gezichten op het Diaconie Oude Vrouwen- en Mannenhuis, waarvan één reproductie van een prent door Caspar Jacobsz. Philips 1890 - 1900

This anonymous photograph from the Rijksmuseum, dated between 1890 and 1900, depicts two views of the Diaconie Oude Vrouwen- en Mannenhuis in Amsterdam. One view shows a canal with a large tree in the foreground and buildings lining the street, while the other shows a more detailed view of the canal with a small building and more boats. These photographs offer a glimpse into the cityscape of Amsterdam during the late 19th century, providing a historical record of this significant building and its surroundings. The use of photo-mechanical reproduction techniques likely played a role in their creation, demonstrating the technological advancements of the time.
