Story

The oldest hospital in Amsterdam has just closed their doors. A hospital that since 1857 brought back the light into the lives of so many Dutch people who recovered within this building.
In this series we choose to not show any details of the hospital itself as for many the stay within the hospital will be remembered as an 'abstract' period in their lives.

We were the only ones who received permission to take photographs after the closing.
