Map of the Rheingau, 1844. Creator: Unknown
Map of the Rheingau, 1844. The Rhine in Germany:the small district within Wiesbaden and Bacharach, or rather, properly called the Rheingau, between Walluf and Lorch, where the Rhine vends his course from east to west. The Rheingau is but a small tract of land, and strictly on the right bank of the Rhine, only occupying an area of about 25 miles. The fertility and riches of production as to the cultivation of wine is concentrated in this little spot. It is the celebrated vineyard of Germany...Charlemagne is said to have observed from his castle, Ingelheim, how early the snow commenced melting on the Rudesheim mountain, planted Orleans grapes, and history sufficiently establishes the fact. The vineyards in the Rheingau are of considerable extent, and those belonging to Prince Metternich are the most celebrated.... From " Illustrated London News", 1844, Vol V

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. Legend has it that even Charlemagne himself observed from his castle in Ingelheim how early snow melted on Rudesheim mountain before planting Orleans grapes. Historical evidence supports this claim, solidifying its place in history. Vast vineyards stretch across this picturesque landscape, with Prince Metternich's holdings being particularly esteemed. The engraving featured in "Illustrated London News" from 1844 captures the essence of this thriving industry during Britain's industrial era. Transport yourself back to the nineteenth century through this image that evokes a sense of nostalgia. Immerse yourself in its intricate details, tracing every curve of the Rhine River and exploring each vinery meticulously depicted. As you gaze upon this remarkable piece from Heritage Images' collection, let your imagination wander to a time when wine production was at its peak in these enchanting vineyards. Appreciate not only their beauty but also their historical significance as you delve into the rich tapestry woven by Unknown - an artist whose identity may remain elusive but whose work continues to captivate audiences today.
