About this motif
Many of Rothenburg's houses date from the 15th and 16th centuries, when the Free Imperial City was at its height. Afterwards it fell into obscurity – a stroke of luck for its present-day appearance.
In the 8 x 11 cm version Sommer renders the oriel with its half-timbered upper floors, floral decoration and the lane with its archway in greater detail. Picture around eight by eleven centimetres on 18 x 24 cm paper, plain, coloured or framed.
