About this motif
As a ruin, the Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church recalls the destruction of the war. Beside the old tower, which Berliners call the "hollow tooth", a modern new church with blue glass windows was built.
Tritt's copper etching in a 17 x 26 cm format (KVCF-WT 22) shows the ruined tower above a busy street with cars, awnings and many passers-by. Printed from the copper plate and coloured by hand.
