Blending Past and Present

The students use apps to look at 2D and 3D reconstructions on three locations on the Kalverstraat and Warmoestraat. They compare the current facades to the reconstructions, which gives them archaeological and historical insights into these locations. The reconstructions were created by students of the bachelor's course Schilders, prentmakers en de beeldbronnen van Amsterdam 1500-1550 ('Painters, printmakers and the image sources of Amsterdam 1500-1550') taught by Madelon Simons. Jitte Waagen is the iniator of this project.
