## What is Amsterdam seen by Jacob Olie?

Jacob Olie (1834-1905), a carpenter and school teacher, photographed Amsterdam at the end of the 19th century. He recorded the rise of the modern city, with all its industry, railways, trams and shipping.

His photos are sharp, crisp clear, and made with an eye for composition and perspective. They offer us a comprehensive view of the city in Olie's days. In a few decades Amsterdam had developed rapidly, once again becoming a modern city. Olie recorded the transformation.

The free version contains 100 photos; the full version has more than 1200.

The photos are presented in chronological order. They can also be accessed by year, keyword and location. All locations are shown on an interactive map.
