Christmas decorations glow backdropped by St Stephens Cathedral in Vienna. After Vienna officialy lit up the city for the upcoming Christmas celebrations. Sweet punch, gingerbread and delicate ornaments are a staple at any Christmas market in Austria, but the centuries-old tradition has also become a major business operation. In Vienna, between three and 3.5 million visitors -- including 500, 000 from abroad -- are expected at the biggest market: the fairytale-like Wiener Adventzauber in front of the gothic spires of city hall.

Christmas Lights Vertical Decorations Vienna
17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 17x15 inches (431x381mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enchanting beauty of Christmas decorations against the majestic backdrop of St Stephens Cathedral in Vienna. As the city officially illuminates for the upcoming festive season, the scene is filled with a warm and magical glow. In Austria, Christmas markets are not just about sweet punch, gingerbread, and delicate ornaments; they have evolved into a thriving business venture. The centuries-old tradition has transformed into an annual spectacle that attracts millions of visitors from around the world. The largest market in Vienna, known as Wiener Adventzauber, is like something out of a fairytale with its gothic spires towering over the festivities. It is estimated that between three and 3.5 million people will visit this market alone, including half a million international tourists seeking to immerse themselves in Austrian holiday traditions. Photographer Joe Klamar skillfully captures this momentous occasion where tradition meets commerce. The image evokes feelings of joy and wonderment as it showcases both the timeless charm of Christmas celebrations and their modern-day commercial significance. As we gaze upon this photograph, we can almost hear carols filling the air while families stroll through bustling stalls adorned with twinkling lights and festive decorations. It serves as a reminder that amidst all our technological advancements and fast-paced lives, there remains an enduring allure to embrace age-old customs during this special time of year.
