About this motif
The model for the Brandenburg Gate was the Propylaea, the gateway to the Acropolis in Athens. It is regarded as one of the first Neoclassical buildings in Berlin.
Falk's etching shows the gate with a flag fluttering above the quadriga, the small gatehouses and lanterns on either side and the Victory Column in the passage. Image about 12 x 16 cm on a 26 x 37 cm sheet, black and white or hand-coloured, framed on request.
