EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to Cologne in the year 1872. The image, captured by E I Roberts, showcases the bustling River Rhine with boats gracefully sailing along its waters. On the far bank, two magnificent structures dominate the skyline - Great St Martin Church and Cologne Cathedral. These architectural marvels stand tall as symbols of religious devotion and Gothic grandeur. The scene depicted in this print offers a glimpse into life during the 19th century in this German city. It highlights not only the importance of water transport for trade and travel but also emphasizes the significance of religion within society at that time. The composition beautifully captures both natural and man-made elements, showcasing how they coexist harmoniously in this picturesque location. The spires of Cologne Cathedral pierce through the sky while sailing ships navigate peacefully on the river below. This historical photograph is an engraving from Captain H M Hozier's book "The Franco-Prussian War: its causes, incidents and consequences". Preserved over time, it serves as a valuable window into a bygone era - a testament to both human ingenuity in architecture and our eternal fascination with capturing moments frozen in time.
