拍品专文

Dirk Johannes van Haaren painted the corner of the Korte Prinsengracht and the Haarlemmerstraat. The tower in the background is one of two towers of the De Posthoorn church. Around the same time the corner was photographed by Breitner, since he was fascinated by the changes in the city. In a series of photographs he recorded the demolition of two buildings just on this corner. Because of this, the painting can be dated reasonably accurate between late 1906 and early 1907.
