View of the Golden Bend in the Herengracht, 1671-1672. Creator: Gerrit Berckheyde
View of the Golden Bend in the Herengracht, 1671-1672. Here we see the canal as it was, shortly before 1672. The crisis that would mark that year had yet to break, and construction is proceeding apace. One house in the background is wrapped in scaffolding; at the start of Spiegelstraat workers are laying paving stones, while building materials lie round about. These decorative yet stark, classical buildings appear here to their best advantage

This stunning 17th century oil painting, titled "View of the Golden Bend in the Herengracht, 1671-1672," captures the serene beauty of Amsterdam's Herengracht canal during a period of significant growth and transformation. Created by the renowned Dutch painter Gerrit Berckheyde, this work of art offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the canal as it appeared just before the crisis of 1672. The tranquil waterway is bustling with activity, as construction is underway on one of the grand houses in the background. Workers can be seen wrapping the building in scaffolding, while others lay paving stones at the start of Spiegelstraat. Building materials are scattered about, adding to the scene's sense of industry and progress.
