EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historical treasure, the "Map of the Rheingau, 1844". Created by an unknown artist, this map provides a glimpse into the small district within Wiesbaden and Bacharach in Germany known as the Rheingau. Spanning only about 25 miles on the right bank of the Rhine River, this region holds immense significance for wine cultivation. The Rheingau is renowned as Germany's celebrated vineyard, where fertility and riches flourish through viticulture.
