3D reconstruction hypothesis of the 17th century entrance hall ('voorhuis') of Herengracht 573, Amsterdam - Piccoli, Chiara (Zenodo, 2023)
3D reconstruction hypothesis of the 17th century entrance hall (‘voorhuis’) of Herengracht 573 in Amsterdam based on information retrieved from the probate inventory (10.5281/zenodo.7501160) and the VOC almanacs of Pieter de Graeff, and building historical research. The 3D reconstruction hypothesis and related sources are discussed in Chiara Piccoli, 'Home-making in 17th century Amsterdam: A 3D reconstruction to investigate visual cues in the entrance hall of Pieter de Graeff (1638-1707)', in G. Landeschi and E. Betts (eds.), Capturing the Senses. Digital Methods for Sensory Archaeologies (Cham: Springer, 2023 forthcoming). The 3D voorhuis can be interactively explored via the prototype Virtual Interiors webviewer (https://www.virtualinteriorsproject.nl/output/). A screencast of the interactive exploration can be viewed at https://doi.org/10.1515/opar-2020-0142 or at https://dx.doi.org/10.21942/uva.14424218 For further details about the aims and the development of the webviewer, see Hugo Huurdeman and Chiara Piccoli 2021. ‘3D Reconstructions as Research Hubs: Geospatial Interfaces for Real-Time Data Exploration of Seventeenth-Century Amsterdam Domestic Interiors’, Open Archaeology, vol. 7 (1), 314-336. https://doi.org/10.1515/opar-2020-0142 and Hugo Huurdeman 2021. ‘Analyze & Experience: Towards a Research Environment for 3D Reconstructions’ (https://www.virtualinteriorsproject.nl/2021/08/04/towards-a-3d-research-environment/) This research was part of the NWO-funded project Virtual Interiors (2018-2022; https://www.virtualinteriorsproject.nl/).
