About this motif
Before fixed bridges were built, the Rhine at Düsseldorf was crossed on a bridge of boats linked together. It could be opened for large ships.
Peters' etching "Old Rhine Bank with Bridge of Boats" shows a sandy bank with horses and a boat, with towers, houses and barges behind. Image about 9 x 12 cm on a 20 x 25 cm sheet, black and white or hand-coloured, framed on request.
