The view is of the west side of the market place (Grote Markt). Facing the spectator is the town hall, which was built in the fourteenth century as a palace of the Counts of Holland and altered in the 1630s. On the gable of the projecting part of the building is a statue of Justice and, above it, the arms of Haarlem. On the right, beside the town hall, is the beginning of the Zijlstraat. The entrance to the Grote Houtstraat is between the houses on the extreme left. On the roof of the town hall are nesting boxes for storks.
NG 1863 is a late version of a composition repeated a number of times by Berckheyde.
It is possible that in this composition Berckheyde had in mind the similar view of the Grote Markt etched by Jan van de Velde after Pieter Saenredam in Samuel Ampzing\'s Beschrijvinge ende Lof van Stad Haerlem of 1628. A chalk sketch by Berckheyde of the left half of this view is in the Teylers Museum, Haarlem.
Bequeathed by George Mitchell to the South Kensington (Victoria and Albert) Museum, 1878; on loan to the National Gallery since 1895.
