About the artwork

Cityscape of Kaiserlich Franziskische Akademie, after Jan de Beijer.

The Montelbaanstoren is an Amsterdam tower from 1516 at the Oudeschans 2. The name came about because the Duke of Alva (Alba) wanted to build a castle near this tower, and wanted to give this castle the name Monte Albano. The tower is nicknamed Malle Jaap (Madcap), because the tower's bells once started playing spontaneously at irregular times.

Balthasar Friedrich Leizelt (also spelled Leizel, active between 1750-1800) was a German artist and copper engraver based in Augsburg.

Leizelt produced a series of European and American landscape views at a time when photographs of foreign lands and people were popular and designed for use in optical viewers. As is usual with these prints, the series title is a mirror image because optical viewers used mirrors that inverted the image. The Age of Enlightenment sparked a great interest in science, so optical toys and devices became a standard form of salon entertainment in the 18th and 19th centuries. Light, perspective and multiple images were cleverly combined to create the illusion of moving pictures.
