About this motif
In the past the Gänsberg was home mainly to ordinary people, craftsmen and traders. The narrow lanes tell of everyday life in centuries past.
Buchner captures the row of houses on the Gänsberg with a stair railing and colourful facades, while a tall house wall juts into the picture on the left. At only about five by seven centimetres, a small keepsake of a vanished quarter – uncoloured, watercoloured or in a frame.
