About this motif
The Viktualienmarkt was established at the beginning of the 19th century, when the market was moved here from Marienplatz. Since then it has been Munich's favourite market for fruit, vegetables and specialities.
Peters' etching "Munich, Viktualienmarkt around 1850" shows a dense throng of market people, stalls and dogs, with churches and town houses behind. Image about 9 x 12 cm on a 20 x 25 cm sheet, black and white or hand-coloured, framed on request.
