General View of the estate of Heemstede, General View of the estate of Heemstede (ca. 1700). A barge with a Dutch banner is being pulled along a canal by a horse in a rather idealised view of Heemsteede, near Houten in the province of Utrecht. In reality the towpath cut diagonally across the front of the gardens. Image taken from: A Collection of 86 plans and views of The Hague. Published in Amsterdam, 1718.
