About the Item

Amsterdam Maagdenhuis – 19th Century Lithograph of a Historical Landmark This refined 19th-century lithograph, titled “R.C. Maagdenhuis te Amsterdam,” beautifully illustrates the grand building of the Maagdenhuis in Amsterdam. Once an important charitable institution, the Maagdenhuis served as a home for orphaned girls and was a testament to the city’s deep tradition of social care and philanthropy. The lithograph captures the building’s elegant 17th-century architecture in meticulous detail, highlighting the stately columns, symmetrical rows of windows, and classical pediment that speak to Amsterdam’s Golden Age prosperity. In the foreground, the scene comes to life with figures going about their daily activities along the peaceful canal, small boats navigating the waterway, and trees adding a serene touch to the urban landscape. Created during the 19th century when urban views like this were popular collectibles, this lithograph served both as a documentation of city heritage and a beloved art piece in Dutch homes. It is a wonderful piece for collectors of Amsterdam history, early Dutch architecture, or charming canal scenes. Condition Report: The print is in good condition overall, with a few scattered spots of foxing typical of age. The central image remains crisp and clear, and the delicate tonal range of the lithograph is well preserved. Framing Tips: A simple black or dark brown frame would provide a classic finish, enhancing the timeless elegance of the scene. A white mat can brighten the image and create a sophisticated contrast that will make this lithograph a refined addition to any home or gallery space.
