Link to a photo gallery of some absolutely amazing examples I checked out in Amsterdam. Enjoy.

Are these from the Rijksmuseum's collection or from the Schveepaartsmuseum or somewhere else? When last I was in Amsterdam, (I know, I know... if you remember Amsterdam, you've never been there. :D ) many years ago, the Rijksmuseum's ship models were in storage while their section of the museum was undergoing extensive renovations and I missed seeing them. If it's the Rijksmuseum, I believe those fantastic exhibits may be the work of Ab Hoving, a member of this forum.
