| Description |
English: The painting presents the rear view of the old Amsterdam Exchange - built by Hendrick de Keyser (1608-11) and torn down in the 19th century. Deviating from the actual topography and ignoring the canal that ran behind the building, van der Heyden combines it with the rear of a patrician mansion and a shingled, medieval-looking cottage. These two building create a highly picturesque and almost rural ensemble of rear courtyards. A true mood painter, van der Heyden is content to suppress topographical accuracy in favour of a lasting impression of the character of a Dutch city. |
