About this motif
Before the railways came, the Main was an important trade route; sailing barges brought goods to the Frankfurt fair. The city owed its wealth to the river.
Peters' etching "Frankfurt am Main" (KVCF-6-51) shows sailing barges on the river, a horse and cart on the bank in front and the old town with the cathedral tower behind. Image about 10 x 14 cm on a 20 x 25 cm sheet, black and white or hand-coloured, framed on request.
