This is an etching of a historical scene featuring a body of water leading through a town or city. In the foreground, there's a large sailing boat with its sails down, docked on the left side of the image. The boat flies a flag on its mast. There is a smaller rowboat alongside it. On the right, a couple of figures are visible on a wooden dock, with one person seemingly engaged in some kind of work or activity.

The architecture lining the waterway is quite distinctive and evocative of an old European city, possibly Dutch, indicated by the stepped gable ends and the design of the houses. There's a sizable building with multiple gables on the left side, which may be a significant public building or a wealthy merchant's house. Rows of houses with tall roofs and chimneys fill the background, and there are more figures going about their daily life along the water's edge and across the bridge in the distance.

At the bottom of the image, there are some inscriptions, which suggest that this scene is a depiction of a place called "S. Anthonis Markt te Waagh," and it appears to be drawn and engraved by an artist whose name is partially given as "Clement de Jonghe excudit AmstelÆdam."

Considering the detail and style, this etching may be from the 17th or 18th century, a period when such scenes were commonly depicted in etchings and engravings by European artists. The level of detail in the buildings, foliage, and figures suggests a skilled artist, and these prints were often used to depict cityscapes and landscapes at the time.
