About this motif
The view across the river is the classic image of Cologne: from the right bank of the Rhine, the cathedral, church towers and old town appear lined up as if on a stage.
This etching by Peters shows 19th-century Cologne from the opposite bank: sailing boats and workers on the shore in the foreground, behind them the bridge, the row of houses and the soaring spires of the cathedral. Image about 8 x 11 cm, black and white or hand-coloured, framed on request.
