The metropolis of canals and culture - Amsterdam Amsterdam, the vibrant capital of the Netherlands, represents a unique fusion of historical heritage and progressive contemporary culture. The characteristic cityscape shaped by concentric rings of canals from the 17th century is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site, testifying to the Netherlands' golden age and maritime history. With over 870,000 inhabitants in the city centre, Amsterdam has developed into one of Europe's most important cultural metropolises. The city's geographical position on the Amstel River combined with the extensive canal system has created a distinctive urban structure that characterizes both everyday life and visual expression. The maritime climate with its changing weather conditions creates dramatic plays of light that have inspired artists throughout the centuries. The famous Dutch sky known from masterpieces by 17th century painters still offers extraordinary visual experiences today, which are captured in our poster collection.
