Amsterdam’s first photography museum (1999), set in a 17th-century canal house, focuses on contemporary and historical photography, from 19th-century daguerreotypes to bold modern works. Exhibits often explore social themes, like identity and migration, with past shows featuring Richard Avedon and Cindy Sherman. The garden café, hidden behind the museum, is a serene spot to reflect on the images. Its name honors 18th-century merchant Isaac de Pinto, who lived in the house—now a sanctuary for visual storytelling.
