Description
The Heiligewegspoort (Holy Way Gate), Amsterdam, in Winter, attributed to Abraham Beerstraten (b.1644) or Anthonie Beerstraten (active c.1635-ca. 1665), circa 1660-1670. Figures congregate in the foreground, some of them skating on the frozen canal by a classical gatehouse. A drawbridge crosses the frozen canal from the bank on the left, where there can be seen houses in the distance, to the gatehouse at the centre-right of the composition, situated at the border of the town.
