About this motif
Stolzenfels Castle near Koblenz was rebuilt from a ruin in neo-Gothic style by the Prussian king Frederick William IV in the 19th century. It is considered one of the major works of Rhine Romanticism.
In this large etching Scholz shows the castle on a wooded hill above the Rhine, with a steamship on the river and the wide valley opening out behind. Image about 20 x 26 cm on a 32 x 42 cm sheet, black and white or hand-coloured, framed on request.
