★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Peter, the owner of the shop, was absolutely lovely to speak with. The paintings in his shop are of a wide variety with lots of character. Highly recommend stopping in for a unique piece of art and pleasant conversation!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Peter, the owner of this small shop, is very helpful. We did have very customised request - to cut the matt for our painting based on the specific size. Peter couldn't do it in the shop itself, but invited us to his house where he had the equipment to do it. Very high quality job and very friendly attitude towards the customers!
Would recommend the shop / services to everyone!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We purchased some nice inexpensive prints and had them framed. The staff was friendly, helpful and wrapped the frames securely, they made it home in our luggage safe and sound. An added bonus is he directed us to a local restaurant for lunch the was perfect.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I concur with the other visitors who suffered complete unimaginable rudeness here. We saw this store and went in excited cause we were looking for a original historical map of Amsterdam. I asked the owner some simple questions to find out who were the noteworthy cartographers. He literally said, "If you were to study the history of the world, you'd notice that babies when they start communicating they use sounds, then words, then it became pictures..." I couldn't believe my ears and thought he was joking or there is some sort of language barrier. But his English was perfectly good. The owner continued to "mock" me by saying, "You should have done your research before you came in here" I was completely shocked. He then said," Get out of here!" I have never in my life been thrown out of a store. Where is this Peter who is so nice and signs calligraphy on people's purchases? Apparently there is a tragic case of bi-polar here? Cause I believe only mental illness can explain away this level of rudeness especially in a retail setting. Anyway, we left and bought a 17th century map elsewhere. That was good money lost for him.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I always biked past this place or stopped to see prints but I was always in a hurry with visitors so I couldn't stop to actually consider buying a piece. Today I took the time and I'm glad I did! The owner was very helpful and explained the technique that was used for the two pieces I chose. We also had an interesting conversation. I definitely recommend this place if you want to buy a unique piece either for yourself or as a gift. He also frames the prints so I would definitely recommend you to do that so that you don't have to worry about getting the right size and quality somewhere else. Thanks a lot!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The shop offers a great selection of high quality prints of old paintings and maps. The friendly shop owner also does calligraphy for you on request.
I had a nice chat with the shop owner and he packed my print carefully after he found out it was a gift and will go through the post.
If you’re looking for something special to remember Amsterdam with, this is a great place to go!
