EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the Main Square in Linz, Upper Austria, circa 1935. The unknown creator beautifully captures the essence of this historical cityscape. On the left side of the image stands the magnificent Old Cathedral, a Baroque masterpiece constructed between 1669 and 1683. Its grandeur is complemented by the Dreifaltigkeitssaule (Holy Trinity column) in the foreground, erected as a solemn reminder of those lost to plague in 1723. The photograph originates from "Osterreich - Land Und Volk" (Austria, Land and People), a book published by R. Lechner (Wilhelm Muller) in Vienna around 1935. It provides an invaluable glimpse into Austrian architecture, arts, religion, and history during that era. As we observe this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported to a period marked by both beauty and adversity. The bustling city square serves as a testament to resilience amidst challenges faced throughout centuries past. This remarkable piece invites contemplation on how cities evolve over time while preserving their cultural heritage. It encourages reflection on humanity's ability to overcome hardships through faith and determination. With its intricate details captured with precision by an anonymous artist's lens, this print offers viewers an opportunity to immerse themselves in Linz's rich history while appreciating its architectural marvels that have stood for centuries.
