About this motif
The ducal castle in the Alter Hof is the oldest surviving part of Munich's residence buildings. Its gate tower with a painted diamond pattern recalls the Bavarian state colours.
Beloch's small etching shows the pale gate tower with a pointed roof, the late Gothic oriel and the cobbled courtyard with a lantern. Image about 5 x 7 cm on a 13 x 18 cm sheet, black and white or hand-coloured, framed on request.
