EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 19th century, specifically to a bustling city entrance in Germany. The image captures a moment of action as a mass of people are seen walking through the drawbridge and portcullis, entering the medieval city. The scene is reminiscent of the middle ages with its monochrome aesthetic and architectural elements. The photograph is actually a 20th-century version based on an earlier print from Das Illustrierte Buch des XIX Jahrhunderts in England, Frankreich und Deutschland. It was featured in Apollo magazine's April 1931 issue, adding to its historical significance. The crowd depicted here represents the concept of rambling through time, bridging past and present. As we observe this snapshot frozen in time, we can't help but imagine what stories lie behind each individual face - their hopes, dreams, and daily struggles within this German city. Although created by an unknown photographer or artist, it is worth noting that Peter von Cornelius played a role in preserving this piece as part of his collection. This print serves as a testament to his dedication to capturing moments from history for future generations. As we gaze upon this intriguing image today, it reminds us of how mediaeval cities were once vibrant hubs filled with life and activity. It invites us to appreciate our own modern urban landscapes while reflecting on the rich heritage that shaped them.
