About this motif
Detmold was the residence of the Princes of Lippe and lies on the edge of the Teutoburg Forest. Nearby, the Hermann Monument, one of Germany's best-known monuments, stands on the Grotenburg.
Peters' portrait-format sheet shows the tall figure with raised sword on its pedestal above the forest, with the wide countryside in the background, captioned "Detmold – Hermannsdenkmal". Image about 9 x 9 cm on an 18 x 24 cm sheet, black and white or hand-coloured, framed on request.
