Frankfurt panorama of the 17th century, 1889 watercolour by Peter Becker

Frankfurt panorama of the 17th century, 1889 watercolour by Peter Becker featuring the Alte Brücke.
Mylius said: It actually is an artist's impression from 1889 of Frankfurt (its suburbia Sachsenhausen respectively) as it looked like around 1600. But he didn't add any imagination, every single object that can be seen (i.e. the bridge tower, the bridge, the fortification, most of the buildings) is taken from historical descriptions / depictions of that time. -- Horst-schlaemma (talk) 09:34, 30 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
