Strasburg, c1872 - A Glimpse into the Past
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to Strasbourg in 1872, a time of great historical significance for the city. Captured by A Willmore, it offers a mesmerizing view of Strasbourg Cathedral and the serene River Ill. The image serves as a reminder that during this period, Strasbourg was under German control following its capture by the Prussians during the Franco-Prussian War of 1870-1871. The photograph showcases the remarkable architecture of both religious and secular buildings lining the riverbanks. The Gothic spires of Strasbourg Cathedral dominate the skyline, symbolizing centuries-old Christian heritage amidst changing political landscapes. Boats gently glide along the river, adding life to this picturesque scene. Strasbourg's unique position as a border city between Germany and France is evident in every detail captured within this print. It beautifully encapsulates both German and French influences on its landscape and culture. As we admire this black-and-white engraving from "The Franco-Prussian War: its causes, incidents and consequences" we are transported back to an era where transportation relied heavily on waterways like River Ill. This historic snapshot allows us to reflect upon how geography shaped not only Strasbourg but also European history itself. Thanks to William Mackenzie's publication, we can now appreciate Sir Henry Montagu Hozier's insightful account while admiring Myles Birket Foster's artistic rendering of this enchanting location. This print truly captures a moment frozen in time - an invaluable piece of our shared heritage that continues to inspire awe even today.
