EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the city of Cologne in 1530. Created by the talented artist Anton Woensam, this woodcut was originally designed for the house of Peter Quentel and later presented to Emperor Charles V and his brother Ferdinand on January 5th, 1531. The intricate details captured in this print allow us to immerse ourselves in the architecture and cityscape of Cologne during the 16th century. The towering cathedral stands proudly as a symbol of Christianity, dominating the skyline with its grandeur. The city itself is nestled along the banks of the majestic River Rhine, adding to its picturesque charm. Woensam's skillful use of monochrome brings out a sense of nostalgia, transporting us back to an era where religious structures played a significant role in shaping cities. As we gaze upon this print, we can almost feel ourselves being transported through time and space. This remarkable piece serves as a reminder not only of Cologne's rich history but also highlights Woensam's talent as an artist who beautifully depicted geographical features alongside architectural marvels. It is no wonder that this woodcut has become a treasured part of Dr HF Helmolt's comprehensive work on world history. As we admire this stunning image from Anton Woensam, let it serve as an invitation to explore further into our past and appreciate how art can capture moments frozen in time.
