Charles Kemper is the son of a Rotterdam resident police inspector. He was a genius draftsman and received permission from the German occupier to make drawings of Rotterdam and the surrounding area for the Rotterdam city archives during the occupation. The city archives have a large collection of special works by Kemper. The area surrounding this historic part of the city, "the old port", was heavily damaged by German bombs. The neighboring White House withstood the Inferno. The text Meerland Sleeping Service is on the house. The drawing is in perfect condition.
