EDITORS COMMENTS
This steel engraving, created in 1850, provides an intriguing glimpse into the past, showcasing the first major railway bridge in Dresden during the formative years of the German Customs Union in 1834. The German Customs Union, also known as the Zollverein, was a significant economic and political alliance of German states, established in 1834, which aimed to create a unified German market through the implementation of a common external tariff. The image, set against the backdrop of the 1830s, captures the essence of the era's progress and transformation. The bridge, an engineering marvel of its time, spans the river, connecting the bustling city of Dresden with its suburbs. A family, consisting of a mother and her child, can be seen taking a leisurely walk along the bridge, while a couple, possibly merchants, engage in a business conversation nearby. In the foreground, a steam-powered locomotive, a symbol of the industrial revolution, stands ready to transport goods across the bridge. The panoramic view of the city, with its open-air markets, boats moored along the riverbanks, and people going about their daily lives, offers a glimpse into the vibrant society of the time. The bridge not only served as a crucial transportation hub but also represented the unity and progress of the German states during the unification process, which culminated in the establishment of the German Empire in 1871. This engraving, with its rich details and captivating composition, offers a unique perspective on the historical, social, and economic changes that shaped Germany during the 19th century.
