Rembrandt drew this little house on the Spaarndammerdijk during one of his walks around Amsterdam. The drawing served as the starting point for the 1648 etching. There are a number of differences between the drawing and the print. The etching is much smaller, the trees have a completely different shape, and Rembrandt added various objects to it, such as a horse’s skull.
