About the artwork

Cityscape according to Kaiserlich Franziskische Akademie, after Willem Writs.

The Jan Roodenpoortstoren was a building on the corner of the Singel and the Torensteeg in the city centre of Amsterdam.

The originally medieval defence tower, which was part of the Jan Roodenpoort, was embellished after the construction of the first part of the canal ring in 1616.

In 2003, the contours of the tower were made visible in the cobblestone pavement of the Torensluis, built in 1648.

Balthasar Friedrich Leizelt (also spelled Leizel, active between 1750-1800) was a German artist and copper engraver based in Augsburg.

Leizelt produced a series of European and American landscape views at a time when photographs of foreign lands and people were popular and designed for use in optical viewers. As is usual with these prints, the series title is a mirror image because optical viewers used mirrors that inverted the image. The Age of Enlightenment sparked a great interest in science, so optical toys and devices became a standard form of salon entertainment in the 18th and 19th centuries. Light, perspective and multiple images were cleverly combined to create the illusion of moving pictures.
