"Af-Beelding van de Buyten Amftel, des Zoomers / Af-Beelding van de Buyten Amftel, des Winters" is a pair of engravings by G.N. Garama, dating back to 1767-1793. These prints, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, depict contrasting views of the Buiten Amstel, a canal in Amsterdam. The top image shows a summer scene, with sailboats and swans on the water, while the lower engraving depicts a frozen canal in winter, featuring people ice skating and enjoying winter activities. These scenes offer a glimpse into daily life in 18th century Amsterdam, with its canals and bustling activities.
