About this motif
After dark, Cologne Cathedral is floodlit and can be seen from miles away. For many people from Cologne, this sight on the way home is the surest sign that they are back.
In this etching by Peters the west front of Cologne Cathedral glows brightly out of a deep black background, every pinnacle and window clearly outlined. An impressive night picture in portrait format, image about 9 x 12 cm, black and white or hand-coloured, framed on request.
