A copperplate engraving of the Nieuwe Kerk (New Church) in Amsterdam. The Gothic church is shown from the perspective of the adjacent square (Dam Square). The building features large pointed-arch windows, a prominent transept, and a central spire. The foreground is active with numerous figures in 17th-century attire, including people conversing, walking dogs, and a horse-drawn carriage. To the left, the edge of a classical building is visible, and on the right, several narrow Dutch gabled houses frame the square. The sky is filled with light, etched clouds.
