The Protestant Dutch Church in Albany traces its roots to the city's Dutch colonial period, when a Reformed congregation took shape along the Hudson River. The print shows the church as a landmark of the old town, at a time when many Americans looked to colonial architecture as a link to their past. The shelflist card associated with the print names John Scoles, though that attribution is unverified, and no date is recorded. The image is worth studying for how it preserves a Dutch-era congregation in a city that later grew far beyond its original streets.
