EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the city of Treves, Germany in 1890. The image showcases the architectural beauty of this historic city, which was founded by the Celts in the late-4th century BC. Once seized by the Franks from Roman administration in 459, Treves became part of Eastern Francia and eventually developed into the Holy Roman Empire. The photograph is taken from "Cassells Illustrated Universal History" by Edmund Ollier, a renowned historian of that time. It offers a glimpse into the medieval landscape with its towering cathedral spires and charming skyline. The monochrome aesthetic adds to the nostalgic charm of this picture, highlighting both nature's presence with trees and plants as well as man-made structures like churches and cathedrals. This visual representation reflects not only historical significance but also emphasizes Christianity's influence on this German city. Treves' location on the banks of River Moselle further enhances its picturesque setting. The photo invites viewers to appreciate both its geographical features and cultural heritage. As an unknown creator captured this momentous scene over a century ago, we are reminded of how history continues to shape our present-day understanding. This print serves as a testament to Treves' rich past while offering us an opportunity to reflect upon our shared human legacy.
