About this motif
Between the cathedral and the Rhine lies Cologne's old town with its narrow lanes, small brewery taverns and squares. The Alter Markt is its centre and closely linked with the history of Cologne's citizens and their town hall.
This small etching by Peters shows the Alter Markt with the monument fountain in the foreground, the narrow, colourful gabled houses and the soaring town hall tower. With an image size of about 7 x 9 cm it makes a lovely gift for anyone who loves Cologne; black and white or hand-coloured, framed on request.
