The large building on the right is the Diaconieweeshuis (Lutheran Parish Orphanage; built 1681–3; destr. 1888); at centre, in the distance, are buildings along the Staalkade and ‘s Gravelandseveer, with the bridge called the Halvemaansbrug just further to the left, linking ‘s Gravelandseveer with the Amstelstraat, the street whose buildings, on the south side of the river, occupy the left half of the composition. These include the brewery ‘De Drie Roskammen’, the large, lightcoloured building at far left. The river is dotted with boats, including a weyschuit (a small boat with a raking stem), which serves as a repoussoir, in the left foreground.","artistMakerPerson":[{"name":{"text":"Abraham Rademaker","id":"AUTH327099"},"association":{"text":"artist","id":"AAT25103"},"note":""}],"artistMakerOrganisations":[],"artistMakerPeople":[],"materials":[{"text":"paper","id":"x30308"},{"text":"pen","id":"x47746"},{"text":"brown ink","id":"x46211"},{"text":"brown wash","id":"x47470"},{"text":"gouache","id":"AAT70114"},{"text":"","id":""}],"techniques":[{"text":"drawing","id":"AAT54196"},{"text":"wash technique","id":"AAT182748"}],"materialsAndTechniques":"Pen and brown ink, with heavy brown wash and touches of gouache in shades of blue-grey and brick red; framing line in dark brown ink.","categories":[{"text":"Drawings","id":"THES48966"}],"styles":[{"text":"Dutch School","id":"x31259"}],"collectionCode":{"text":"PDP","id":"THES48595"},"images":["2009BX2434","2017JX4176"],"imageResolution":"high","galleryLocations":[{"current":{"text":"LVLH","id":"THES49654"},"free":"","case":"DG","shelf":"41","box":""}],"partTypes":[[{"text":"drawing","id":""}]],"contentWarnings":[{"apprise":"","note":""}],"placesOfOrigin":[{"place":{"text":"Holland","id":"x29020"},"association":{"text":"drawn","id":"x30545"},"note":"possibly"}],"productionDates":[{"date":{"text":"late 17th - early 18th century","earliest":"1680-01-01","latest":"1711-12-31"},"association":{"text":"drawn","id":"x34232"},"note":""}],"associatedObjects":[],"creditLine":"Bequeathed by Rev.
