See RP-P-AO-24-29 for future state. This print is often wrongly regarded as a representation of the inauguration of the Portuguese Synagogue on August 2 1675. The Fontange-hairstyle of women, which in Amsterdam typical was the fashion around 1695, however, points out that this is not the case to be. Another picture of the interior of the synagogue by De Hooghe is published on the occasion of the inauguration: RP-P-AO-24-27. See documentation (Offenberg) for informatie.
