This is a very interesting, extra long print of a panoramic view of Amsterdam, Holland in 1975. There are wonderful, fine details throughout. This rare print of Amsterdam is filled with elaborate and delightful scenes. Fascinating and captivating describe this unusual print. There is so much activity going on in this picture. There are nuns walking a school of children...a couple happily hugging and kissing...hitchhikers walking...a hobo begging for money, as a man drops a coin in his hat, people selling from a hot dog stand...people waiting for the bus...some admiring the river scene...a tourist taking pictures...a man carrying his fishing poles and bait box...other confused tourists looking at a long map as though they're lost...those waiting for the train...those riding bicycles...two men fishing, others dining across the river, a man reading the paper, families holding hands, a man riding a horse, hikers hiking large backpacks...and many waiting to get on the sightseeing boat from the dock. Each person in this picture is seen doing something different. How interesting! This awesome print would make a wonderful conversation piece! The print is signed by the artist in the lower right corner, "Volders". The artist paid meticulous attention to capturing the allure, appeal, and energy of this great legendary city. Circa 1975. There is also an emblem with words in the top right corner with two lions and a crown. - (see photo) There are other words written on signs throughout the background of this piece such as..."Rondvaart", "Bergmann", "KLM", "Mercurius", "Kassa", "Play In", "Snack Corner", "Haring Lekker En Gezond", "Hot Dogs", "Broodje Haring", Amstel Pils", Hasekamrs Zeer Oude Genever", and "F Van Vettewinkel". The print is in excellent original condition. The original wood frame retains its original black finish and is also in excellent original condition. Original glass, original paper backing with label, and original wire hanger. Circa 1975. ***I would be happy to provide additional photos if requested. |
