About this motif
In the early 19th century, Prussian troops entered the city through the Brandenburg Gate after victorious campaigns. The square in front became a stage for parades and receptions.
Sommer's etching shows a cheerful scene with riders, carriages, ladies in long dresses and a dog, large trees on either side and the gate behind. Image about 12 x 16 cm on a 26 x 37 cm sheet, black and white or hand-coloured, framed on request.
