About the artwork

A Watercolour Painting of the Groenburgwal Houses during the Blue Hour in Amsterdam Netherlands.

The Groenburgwal is an Amsterdam canal that connects the Raamgracht to the Amstel River. The Groenburgwal lies parallel to the Kloveniersburgwal and the Zwanenburgwal, in the shadow of the tower of the Zuiderkerk

Until late in the 16th century, the area between Kloveniersburgwal and Zwanenburgwal was still "the area outside the fortress near the Amstel". In 1593, the area was annexed to the city.

Cloth weaving mills were located here, where wool was washed, carded and spun in order to weave a cloth fabric, which after being fulled and dyed was stretched on wooden frames (called cloth frames) to dry and stretch. The names of nearby Raamgracht, the Raamsloot dug in 1537 near the Rusland, and Verversstraat (1593) recall those activities.

In the early 17th century, the Amstel between Kloveniersburgwal and Groenburgwal and, somewhat later, the 's Gravelandse Veer, between Groenburgwal and Blauwbrug, were plied. Around that time, the name Groenburgwal also came into being; green dye works were specifically located here.

The name Groenburgwal is due to the fact that it was the first canal with trees. Placing trees was not common at first.
