About this motif
The two small gatehouses beside the Brandenburg Gate once housed the customs and gate guards. Today they are home to, among other things, a Room of Silence.
Sommer's miniature shows the gate framed by trees, with lanterns at the sides and a carriage in the foreground. Image about 5 x 5 cm, black and white or hand-coloured, framed on request – a fine little keepsake of Berlin.
