The Golden Bend in the Herengracht, Amsterdam, Seen from the East by Gerrit Adriaensz Berckheyde (1638-1698) oil on panel, 1671 -1672. Due to Amsterdams explosive population growth, the city experienced several expansions during the 17th century. This painting presents a section of the citys world-famous ring of canals. The bend in the Herengracht depicted here was the domain of the wealthiest. When Berckheyde painted this sun-drenched city view, several houses had yet to be completed and there were still vacant lots.
