Description

This intriguing black and white photo from 1961 reveals a snapshot of the Coolsingel, one of Rotterdam's most emblematic avenues, seen at a time of remarkable transformation. With the majestic town hall proudly displaying its neoclassical facade and the lively Hofplein only partially visible, this shot offers a unique view of the heart of Rotterdam in the early 1960s.

The photo captures the essence of Rotterdam's reconstruction and progress, with the Coolsingel functioning as a symbolic axis between the historic and the renewed. The town hall, undamaged by the war years, stands as a beacon of stability and continuity, while the surroundings bear witness to the dynamic changes that the city was experiencing at the time.

Amid this historical and architectural wealth, the inhabitants of Rotterdam move about, some hastily, others casually, each with their own story. The classic cars and soft shadows cast a nostalgic glow over the scene, while the open space of Hofplein offers a breather from the urban hustle and bustle.

This photo is not only a visual document of a specific era in Rotterdam; it is a window into the soul of the city, where every building, every street and every passer-by is part of a larger story about resilience, innovation and connection. Owning this photograph, whether in a private collection or on public display, offers a moment of reflection on Rotterdam's unique history and its tireless pursuit of the future.

The photo is available as a poster, canvas or as a glass painting in various sizes.
