About this motif
The Brandenburg Gate was completed in 1791 and was then the western city gate of Berlin. The quadriga on the gate was created by Johann Gottfried Schadow.
A. Carse's steel engraving from around 1840 shows the gate with its columns and quadriga above Pariser Platz, with strollers in front. The mount has a special stepped cut-out and is set in a gold-coloured moulding, about 30 x 35 cm.
