A modern concrete and brick building in the centre of Leiden, the Netherlands in 1959. It houses a car dealership for Opel with a yellow neon sign on the top of the block saying ‘Opel Huis’. It is a mixed development with three storeys of apartments above the ground floor commercial space. Leiden is a city in the Dutch province of South Holland (Zuid-Holland). It’s known for its centuries-old architecture and for Leiden University, the country’s oldest, dating from 1575. This image is from an old amateur transparency. It will look soft if used at too large a size – a vintage 1950s photograph.
