EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white etching, titled "Gothic Towers and River, Cologne, 1891" transports us back to the enchanting cityscape of late 19th century Germany. The artist behind this masterpiece is Axel Haig, a Swedish painter known for his intricate architectural renderings. The print showcases the majestic Gothic towers of Cologne's churches rising proudly against the backdrop of the Rhine River. The meticulous attention to detail brings out the grandeur of these towering structures, evoking a sense of awe and reverence. In the foreground, we see boats gracefully gliding along the river's surface. A tugboat stands out among them, symbolizing both transportation and industry. This bustling scene captures a moment in time when rivers were vital lifelines for trade and travel. Haig's masterful technique shines through in every stroke as he skillfully captures not only the architecture but also the atmosphere surrounding it. The play between light and shadow adds depth to this already mesmerizing composition. Displayed at The McManus museum in Dundee, UK, this etching serves as a testament to Haig's artistic prowess and his ability to transport viewers across time and space. It invites us to immerse ourselves in an era long gone yet preserved forever within this remarkable piece of art.
