About this motif
The Alster Arcades were built after the Great Fire of 1842 in the style of Venetian arcades. They line the canal between Rathausmarkt and Jungfernstieg and are among the most elegant places in the city.
Peters' etching shows the arcades by the water, the city hall tower above, with a tram, cars and a bridge in the foreground. Image about 9 x 12 cm on a 20 x 25 cm sheet, black and white or hand-coloured, framed on request.
