EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the historic event of "The flooding of Amsterdam in 1672 by the order of William III". Captured around 1902, this engraving from Cassells Illustrated History of England transports us to a time when horses were still a common mode of transportation. In this scene, we see a bustling city street submerged under water as people gather to witness the extraordinary sight. The crowd is filled with both locals and visitors who have come together to observe the aftermath of King William III's decision. As bystanders look on, their expressions reveal a mix of awe, curiosity, and perhaps even concern for those affected by the flood. Amsterdam itself provides an intriguing backdrop for this historical moment. Known for its picturesque canals and charming architecture, it is hard to imagine such devastation befalling this vibrant Dutch city. However, history reminds us that even great cities are not immune to natural disasters. The image also offers insight into England's involvement during this period. King William III was not only the ruler of England but also held titles as King of Great Britain and Ireland as well as Prince William of Orange. His influence extended beyond his own country's borders. Preserved through time thanks to The Print Collector7 collection at Heritage Images, this monochrome print allows us to reflect upon significant events that shaped nations centuries ago while reminding us how far we've come in terms of technology and urban planning today.
