1890 Brandenburg Gate Berlin Germany Rotogravure Photo Illustration

Description

~ Here's The Gate To The City Of Berlin As Viewed in 1890~

From my personal collection of amazing antique papers I'm very pleased to present to you "The Brandenburg Gate Berlin, Germany" as it stood in the year 1890.
Berlin was a very different world 120 years ago. There were no automobiles, electricity was still in it's infancy and photography was a relatively new and very exciting invention.
For the very wealthy, there were lavish picture books for people to gaze upon... exotic and wonderful far off places around the globe; like the book this delightful 8 1/2" x 11" illustrated plate came from.
The printed image itself is 6" x 8" and simply yells "FRAME ME!"
I've had it stashed in a box forever and ever (with others just as amazing.)
This gorgeous image deserves far better treatment. The ever so perfect heavy weight paper has just a tiny sheen and is smooth and clean, without wrinkles or flaws
The Brandenburg Gate is a gem.

This gorgeous antique rotogravure is the Real Deal... not a scanned photocopy or a download.
