The first of a group of four photographs my father took in Edam on 11 August 1958 from much the same position, on a wide bridge crossing the canal alongside which runs Voorhaven. On the north side is the Edam museum (second building from the left), built as a merchant's house around 1540 with a floating cellar, and converted to a museum in 1895.
