.. 't Huiszitten Weduwen Hof - Goeree (c.1760)

Description: Antique print with two views titled 't Huiszitten Weduwen Hof van vooren' and 't Huiszitten Weduwen Hof van binnen, naar agteren gezien'. Two views of a widows house in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. This print originates from 'Amsterdam, In Zyne Opkomst, Aanwas, Geschiedenissen, Voorregten, Koophandel, Gebouwen, Kerkenstaat, Schoolen, Schutterye, Gilden En Regeeringe', published between 1760 and 1767.

Artists and Engravers: Jan Goeree (1670-1731) was a Dutch engraver and poet. He was the son of the Middelburg bookseller Willem Goeree. Born in Middelburg, but soon they moved to Amsterdam. Initially he focussed on painting, assumably a student of Gerard de Lairesse. But he is best known for his engraving skills, depicting mostly emblematic and historic scene.
