EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Augsburg 1665 Etching state Sheet" takes us back in time to the city of Augsburg in the year 1665. The etching, created by Matthäus Merian the Elder, a renowned Swiss artist from Basel, showcases his exceptional talent and attention to detail. The image captures a distant view of Augsburg, with its prominent landmark - the Red Tower or Rote Tor - standing tall against the sky. A stream gracefully flows through the fields in the foreground, adding a sense of tranquility to the scene. In the centre background, we can see St. Ulrich and Afra Abbey, an architectural masterpiece that adds grandeur to this historic cityscape. Merian's drawing skillfully depicts every intricate detail of Augsburg's architecture and landscape. The fine lines and shading bring life to each building and tree visible in this artwork. As we gaze at this print from Artokoloro's Liszt Collection, we are transported back in time to experience Augsburg as it was centuries ago. It is a testament not only to Merian's artistic prowess but also serves as a valuable historical document for those interested in exploring Europe's rich cultural heritage.
