EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving, titled "View of Liebfrauenberg Square in winter, Frankfurt am Main, 1738" takes us back in time to a wintry scene filled with enchantment and bustling activity. The artist behind this masterpiece is Salomon Kleiner, a renowned Austrian painter from the early 18th century. The image showcases a picturesque square covered in a blanket of snow, transforming the city into a magical wonderland. A diverse group of people can be seen going about their daily lives amidst the winter chill. Men and women navigate through the icy streets on sledges and sleighs, adding an element of excitement to their journeys. As our eyes wander across the print, we notice that not everything goes according to plan. One woman appears to have had an accident while riding her sledge, capturing both our attention and sympathy for her misfortune. This glimpse into social history reminds us that even centuries ago, accidents were an inevitable part of life's unpredictable nature. Georg-Daniel Heumann skillfully engraved this artwork by Kleiner with intricate detail and precision. The combination of his craftsmanship and Kleiner's artistic vision transports us back to a bygone era where winters were embraced as opportunities for adventure despite potential mishaps. This extraordinary piece now resides in a private collection but continues to captivate viewers with its historical significance and portrayal of everyday life during wintertime in Frankfurt am Main over two centuries ago.
