About this work

View of the south-western side of the Old Men's and Women's House in Amsterdam, seen from the north-east. As it appeared after the renovation of 1754-1757. Although women did reside in this old people's home, the building, now known as the Oudemanhuispoort, is better known as the Oudemannenhuis. Various figures on the courtyard. Below the image the title and dedication in Dutch and French, with the coat of arms of Joachim Rendorp in the center.
