Lot description

The artist and publisher Cornelis Ploos van Amstel (1726-1798) produced this print after a drawing by Pieter Jansz. Saenredam (1597-1665), famous for his church interiors. By combining the etching technique with careful hand-colouring, Ploos van Amstel produced "printed drawings". His coat of arms is printed on the verso.
