About this motif
The Thomaskirche is inseparably linked with Johann Sebastian Bach, who worked here for almost three decades as cantor. His grave lies in the chancel.
Herzog places the slender tower with its lantern beside the steeply rising church roof, with trees and a street lamp in the foreground. The picture measures approximately 8 x 11 cm on 18 x 24 cm paper – available as a black print, colour-washed or with a frame.
