A copperplate engraving of the estate "Amstel-zigt" (Amstel View). On the left stands a large, symmetrical two-story brick manor house with dormer windows and tall chimneys. To its right is an ornate, classical-style gated entrance flanked by pillars, leading to trees. In the foreground, a road runs alongside a canal; a horse-drawn carriage with passengers travels left, while pedestrians stroll near the gate. On the water, a small boat with six people is being rowed. Two fishermen stand on the bank to the far right. The sky is filled with voluminous clouds.

A copperplate engraving of the estate "Overmeer". The central feature is a two-story country house with a bell-tower or cupola on its roof. It is positioned behind a low stone wall and a prominent arched gate with decorative ironwork. To the right of the gate is a long garden wall with niches and a small pavilion at the end. Figures in period clothing walk along the waterfront. In the foreground, a canal features a small rowing boat. The background is lush with tall trees, and the sky is partly cloudy.
