The serene waters reflect the grandeur of the ancient fortress city, with the distant town of Tonau adding an intriguing layer to the scene. Buda, a significant historical and cultural center, is adorned with architectural marvels that have withstood the test of time. In this early representation, the baths, a popular attraction for visitors and locals alike, can be seen to the left. The soothing waters of these thermal baths, believed to have therapeutic properties, have been a source of relaxation and rejuvenation for centuries. In the foreground, a lustgarten, or pleasure garden, adds a touch of tranquility to the scene.
