I like the group of kids in the lower right corner. What are they up to?

This building was not a 'bourse' but a weighing house (it is still called 'De Waag"), where goods were weighed for tax purposes. For weighing house see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weigh_house -which has a picture of this same building.

The canal is Kloveniersburgwal, I think (compare www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/4120057770/in/s... taken from the other side - Geldersekade)
