About "Canal houses"

by Stephan Scheffer

About the artwork

A canal house is a house on the canal, and is generally old. Usually, the houses are tall, narrow and deep because the tax was levied according to the width of the facade. Because of the danger of flooding, the front door is sometimes on the ground floor and the house is accessed via a landing stage. Canal houses usually had a basement and an attic where merchandise could be stored. The attic was equipped with a hoisting installation or a special beam used to hoist goods.
Amsterdam's canals are also lined with double-wide canal houses, particularly along the Herengracht. The first owner would buy two building plots and have one house built on them. Especially if he also bought the plots at the back and had a coach house built, we can sometimes speak of a city palace. The width of a canal house and the depth of the garden can vary greatly. (To clarify: the plots in the 17th century were initially 18 feet, soon 20, 22, 24 or 26 feet wide. An Amsterdam foot was 28,13 cm).
