EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1879, offering a glimpse into the historic city of Koblenz in Germany. Situated at the confluence of the Mosel and Rhine rivers, this picturesque location has been a significant geographical feature for centuries. The focal point of this image is undoubtedly the magnificent fortress of Ehrenbreitstein, which dates back to the 10th century. Though it suffered destruction in 1799, it was meticulously reconstructed between 1816 and 1832. Its imposing presence on top of a hill adds an air of grandeur to the landscape. As we explore further, we are captivated by the intricate network of buildings that make up Koblenz's town center. The charming architecture reflects both German tradition and influences from neighboring regions. This engraving beautifully captures every detail with its monochrome palette. The combination of two powerful rivers flowing through this enchanting city creates an awe-inspiring sight. The mighty Rhine river merges with the tranquil Mosel river, adding to Koblenz's natural beauty. This remarkable print is credited to Charles Barbant, who skillfully captured not only a moment frozen in time but also an essence that transcends generations. It allows us to appreciate both history and geography as we immerse ourselves in this stunning depiction of Koblenz and Festung Ehrenbreitstein in all their glory during Germany's vibrant nineteenth century.
