EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting photograph, taken between approximately 1890 and 1900, captures a general view of Frankfurt am Main, Germany's largest city in the nineteenth century. The picture showcases the picturesque and nostalgic charm of the old town, with its colorful buildings and bustling warehouses lining the banks of the historic Main River. Frankfurt's strategic location along the Main River made it a significant trading hub during the 19th century. The city's warehouses, seen here in all their glory, were instrumental in the storage and distribution of goods, contributing to Frankfurt's economic prosperity. The colorful facades of the buildings, adorned with intricate details and ornate architectural elements, reflect the rich history and cultural heritage of the city. The photograph, which is part of the Mary Evans Prints Online collection, is a beautiful example of the Photochrom process, which was popular during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This method involved the hand-coloring of photographs using a series of pigments, resulting in vibrant and detailed images that captured the essence of the past. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back in time, allowing us to experience the sights and sounds of Frankfurt am Main during a bygone era. The river's gentle flow, the bustling activity of the warehouses, and the colorful buildings all combine to create a scene that is both historical and timeless, evoking a sense of nostalgia for a period long past.
