Vissevasse Amsterdam Canal Houses Poster, 50 X70 Cm

In the 1700s, Amsterdam was one of the world's leading trading centers. Stowed away in the lofts of the canal houses, diamonds, spices and cotton were waiting to change hands. It is said that the width of the house determines how much tax the owner had to pay. No wonder the houses are narrow - but deep and high. Amsterdam's canal district is on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
