Description
In Visiting Historic Houses in Amsterdam, take a walk with Froukje Wattel through Amsterdam's vibrant house museums. Text in English and Dutch. "... In fact, my entire journey through Amsterdam's vibrant house museums was one great historical sensation in a variety of contexts. I followed in the footsteps of Dutch East India Company directors, workers, orphans, writers, artists, architects, and many others, seeing how they lived and worked. How they ate in poverty-stricken 19th-century slums or at lavishly laid tables in canal-side mansions of Van Loon or Bartolotti. How they prayed in secret with Father Parmentier in a clandestine attic church. I am not longer just an Amsterdammer: now I'm an Amsterdammer with a past." - Froukje Wattel. Text in English and Dutch.
