EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Sash lock, Schutsluis in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, D. van den Bosch, 1817" takes us on a journey back in time to witness the intricate workings of a lift lock in the heart of Amsterdam. Captured by Quint Lox from the renowned Liszt Collection, this image transports us to an era where men labored diligently to ensure smooth navigation through the city's canals. The photograph showcases a group of men actively engaged in their work at the open lock. With focused expressions and determined postures, they skillfully operate the sash lock mechanism while standing against a sturdy quay wall adorned with various tools and weapons. These arms hanging on display serve as a testament to both protection and historical significance. Dated back to 1817 and credited to D. van den Bosch, this remarkable piece offers not only visual appeal but also serves as an invaluable historical document that sheds light on Amsterdam's rich canal system heritage. As we admire this print by Quint Lox from Liszt Collection, we are reminded of how human ingenuity has shaped our cities throughout history. It is through such glimpses into our past that we gain appreciation for those who came before us and laid down foundations upon which modern society thrives today.
