About the Item

A busy 18th century river scene along Amsterdam's waterfront. One etching from the series of 10 lively nautical scenes entitled Seascapes. This image depicts six vessels, from left to right: a flute, a kaag, a spritsail, a rowboat, a ship of the line, and a wijd-or smalschip. Amsterdam: 1701. Etching on lightweight laid paper with a "BB" watermark, 6 13/16 x 9 1/8 inches (173 x 231 mm), wide margins. In very good condition with some minor uniform toning. The sheet is adhered to a mat in several spots around the sheet edge on the verso with what appears to be translucent archival mending tape. Most of the tape remnants are outside of the platemark. [Hollstein 4]
