EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Arms of the Grand-Duchy of Baden-Baden, dating back to 1844. The creator of this magnificent piece remains unknown, adding an air of mystery and intrigue to its historical significance. Baden-Baden, known as the second most prestigious spa town in Germany after Wiesbaden, attracted a multitude of visitors seeking relaxation and rejuvenation. However, it was lamented by Germans that French manners and language were prevalent among the guests. Despite this cultural influence, immense crowds flocked to Baden-Baden from Strasbourg and Carlsruhe on Sundays via steam boats or railway. The atmosphere in Baden-Baden was described as mild and salubrious, making it an ideal destination for both tourists and invalids seeking respite from their ailments. This engraving originally appeared in the "Illustrated London News" in 1844, providing readers with a glimpse into the allure of this German spa town during the 19th century. The image features an allegorical figure personifying Baden-Baden's coat of arms. A woman stands proudly amidst a heraldic backdrop, symbolizing the grandeur and heritage associated with this region. The Victorian era aesthetic adds a touch of elegance to this portrayal. Preserved through time by Heritage Images' collection, this print allows us to appreciate not only its artistic beauty but also gain insight into the history surrounding one of Germany's most renowned spa destinations - Baden-Baden.
