About this motif
Old city views show Mannheim with its star-shaped fortifications and regular street grid. The layout was regarded as a model of a planned city.
Peters' large-format sheet shows the fortified city with the pontoon bridge over the Rhine, putti with banners at the top and a cartouche with text below. Image about 22 x 32 cm on a 40 x 50 cm sheet, black and white or hand-coloured, framed on request.
