EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1926, capturing the timeless beauty of the old Krantor (Crane Gate) on the river Mottlau in Gdansk, Poland. The Krantor stands tall as a remarkable example of brick Gothic architecture, its origins dating back to the 15th century when it was built between 1442 and 1444. The monochrome image showcases the intricate details of this historic structure, highlighting its grandeur against the backdrop of the serene riverside. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported to an era where craftsmanship and artistry were celebrated. Originally featured in Apollo magazine's December issue of that year, this photograph serves as a testament to Poland's rich architectural heritage. It invites us to appreciate not only the physical beauty but also reflects upon centuries-old history embedded within its walls. Through this print collector's lens, we can almost hear echoes from past generations who once traversed through these gates. This piece is a valuable reminder that our world is shaped by both tangible structures and intangible narratives that intertwine seamlessly. As we admire this stunning capture from nearly a century ago, let us marvel at how time has preserved such treasures while reminding ourselves of their significance in shaping our cultural landscape today.
