EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a glimpse of Amsterdam's past, showcasing the "Bridge over Singel Canal by the Paleisstraat" in all its glory. Painted by Georg-Hendrik Breitner between 1895 and 1900, this oil on panel artwork beautifully depicts the city's urban landscape during that time. The image exudes a sense of bleakness and dampness, as winter has cast its icy grip upon the streets. Pedestrians bundled up against the freezing cold can be seen braving their way across the bridge, while horse-drawn carriages traverse through the snowy terrain. The architecture along the canal adds to the charm of this Dutch cityscape. Breitner's impressionist style brings life to every brushstroke, capturing not only a moment frozen in time but also evoking emotions associated with Northern European winters. The transport scene showcases both vernacular and traditional modes of transportation prevalent during that era. As we gaze at this remarkable piece from our private collection, we are transported back to a different era - one where horses trotted alongside canals covered in snow and pedestrians navigated through an enchanting winter wonderland. This painting serves as a testament to Amsterdam's rich history and enduring beauty.
