EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Town gate in Gdansk Showing the Long Gardens" takes us on a journey back in time to 18th century Poland. The etching, created by Friedrich Anton Lohrmann after Matthaeus Deisch, beautifully captures the essence of this historic town. In the foreground, we see a picturesque riverbank with a drawbridge spanning across the tranquil waters. A lone fisherman stands at the edge of the river, his gaze fixed on his fishing line as he patiently waits for a catch. The pulley system nearby suggests that fishing was an integral part of daily life in Gdansk during this era. The towering spire of a church dominates the background, adding an air of spirituality to this scene. It serves as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage that permeates every corner of Gdansk. The title references "Fifty Views of Gdansk" hinting at an extensive collection capturing various facets of this enchanting town. This particular view showcases the Long Gardens, which were undoubtedly cherished by locals and visitors alike for their beauty and serenity. Preserved within Muzeum Narodowe in Gdansk, Poland, this artwork is not just a visual delight but also an important historical artifact. It allows us to glimpse into everyday life centuries ago and appreciate how much has changed while marveling at what remains timeless. Bridgeman Images has once again brought history to life through their meticulous preservation and presentation of fine art prints
