Koblenz - Lahnstein. - "Vue du Chateau de Stolzenfels - appartenant a Sa Altesse Royal le Prince Frederique de Prusse"

Aquatinta by Sigismond Himely (1807-1872). In splendid original gouache hand coloring

After the drawing by Johann Ludwig (Louis) Bleuler (1792-1850)

Published by l. Bleuler. Schaffhausen, ca. 1840

Incredibly beautiful aquatint of the castle belonging, then, to Prince Frederic of Prussia (1794-1863)

Located in the left side of the River Rhein (Rhine) opposite the confluence of the Lahn River. The wide view from the castle goes to the castle of Lahneck at the pojunt of confluence of the Rivers Lahn and Rhein.

The original castle was built in the 13th century, by the archbishop of Trier. Changing historical events had the castle, amended, destroyed, rebuilt, added to over the centuries. Towards the end of the 17th century Stolzenfels was a mere ruin and remained in the sad state. In Napoleonic times the ruin was in the possession of the nearby City of Koblenz. Prince Frederic of Prussia began with the restoration of the ruin. The restoration was completed in 1842.

Through the outstanding gouache hand coloring, typical for the work done by Bleuler, this print has the quality for anyone with a love for old European castles will love to own it.

Very good condition.
