About this motif
In the merchants' houses on Deichstraße, home, office and warehouse were under one roof. The family lived at the front facing the street, while goods were handled at the back on the canal.
This large etching by Traulsen shows the canal with calm water and barges, the colourful gable fronts in delicate pastel tones and a bridge in the background. Image about 20 x 26 cm on a 32 x 42 cm sheet, black and white or hand-coloured, framed on request.
