EDITORS COMMENTS
This 18th century print depicts an aerial view of the Alte Brücke (Old Bridge) over the River Main in Frankfurt am Main, Germany. The bridge, a significant historical landmark, connects the old town (Altstadt) with the neighborhood of Sachsenhausen. The view showcases the bridge's elegant arches, which have stood since 1222, spanning the river and providing a vital transportation link. In the foreground, small boats and larger vessels are moored along the riverbank, reflecting the bustling commercial activity that once thrived in this region. The low countries of the Netherlands, particularly Darmstadt and Hesse, are evident in the background, with their distinctive flat landscapes and quaint houses. The print, created between 1742 and 1801, is attributed to Anon, an anonymous artist. Although the creator's identity remains unknown, the intricate detail and masterful use of color and shading suggest the work of a skilled artist. The print could be an etching or a watercolor, with the paper showing subtle signs of aging, adding to its historical charm. Notable figures of the time, such as Georg Daniel Heumann and Georg Balthasar Probst, may have admired this view from the bridge or its surrounding vantage points. Today, the Alte Brücke remains a popular tourist attraction and a symbol of Frankfurt's rich history and cultural heritage.
