About this motif
With the arrival of steamships in the 19th century, the Rhine became a modern waterway. Smoking tugs pulled long barges upriver.
Peters' etching "Düsseldorf, Rhine Front" shows steamships trailing smoke, a bridge in the background and the quay with a tower and buildings on the right. Image about 9 x 9 cm on an 18 x 24 cm sheet, black and white or hand-coloured, framed on request.
