EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting city of Riga in the early 18th century. The view showcases the picturesque city nestled on the banks of the majestic river Daugava, offering a glimpse into its rich history and architectural beauty. The caption reveals that this image is from an engraving found in Rudolf Johann Helmer's book "Politica Politica" published in Nurnberg in 1700. It further mentions that this illustration was featured in Prof. Dr. J. v. Pfluck Harttung's "Welt Geschichte" specifically on page 31, highlighting its significance as a historical artifact. Intriguingly, we are drawn to three figures depicted prominently in the foreground: a jester, a man, and a young girl. Their presence adds an element of liveliness and whimsy to this otherwise serene cityscape. As we immerse ourselves in this snapshot of Riga's past, it becomes evident that Lieflande (Livonia), now known as Latvia, was once home to vibrant communities bustling with life and culture. Bridgeman Images presents us with yet another remarkable piece from their collection - an exquisite portrayal of Riga's charm during the 18th century. This print serves as a window into history for all those who appreciate art, architecture, and European heritage alike.
