Huizen aan water in Ouderkerk aan de Amstel 1859 - 1870

"Huizen aan water in Ouderkerk aan de Amstel" (Houses by the Water in Ouderkerk aan de Amstel) is a stereoscopic photograph by Dutch photographer Pieter Oosterhuis, dating from 1859 - 1870. The image depicts a picturesque view of a canal in Ouderkerk aan de Amstel, Netherlands, with houses lining the water's edge. The photograph, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, captures the serenity of the Dutch countryside with the reflection of the buildings in the calm water, a typical characteristic of the region. This photograph, one of Oosterhuis' many notable works, showcases his mastery of capturing detail and creating a sense of depth. It is a valuable document of 19th-century Dutch life and landscape.
