EDITORS COMMENTS
This etching, titled "View of Heidelberg (Heidelberga), Spire (Spira) and Worms (Wormatia), Germany" takes us on a journey through time to the picturesque landscapes of three historic German cities. Created by Franz Hogenberg in the late 16th century, this print is a remarkable piece from the renowned atlas book "Civitates Orbis Terrarum" by Georg Braun and Hogenberg. The scene depicted showcases the beauty and grandeur of Heidelberg, Speyer, and Worms. The viewer's gaze is drawn towards Heidelberg's magnificent palace perched atop a hill, overlooking the city below. A graceful bridge connects both sides of the river that flows peacefully through these ancient towns. Intricate details capture the architectural marvels present in each city: towering churches with their spires reaching for the heavens, sturdy fortifications guarding against potential threats, and charming buildings lining narrow streets. This etching offers a glimpse into what life might have been like during this period in history. Luisa Ricciarini has expertly preserved this historical gem within her private collection. Through her generosity in sharing this artwork with us today, we are able to appreciate not only its artistic value but also gain insight into how these cities appeared centuries ago. As we admire this print, let our imaginations wander back to an era filled with bustling markets, lively conversations echoing through cobblestone streets, and vibrant cultures thriving amidst
