EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph captures a vibrant street scene in San Francisco, USA, back in 1898. Created by Christian Wilhelm Allers for his book "Rund um die Erde" (Round the Earth), this print offers a glimpse into the bustling city life of that era. In the foreground, young boys dressed in knickerbockers proudly wave American flags, exuding their patriotism. One boy even holds a rifle while another brandishes a sword, symbolizing the spirit of adventure and bravery prevalent at the time. The Call Building stands tall in the background, belonging to The San Francisco Call newspaper which had recently been completed. Little did anyone know that this iconic building would later suffer severe damage during the devastating earthquake and fire of 1906. On the right side of the image stand soldiers, perhaps representing an army presence or emphasizing themes of war and conflict. This lithograph beautifully encapsulates late 19th-century America with its detailed depiction of people going about their daily lives on these historic streets. It serves as both a visual record and an artistic representation of an important period in San Francisco's history. With its combination of historical significance and aesthetic appeal, this print is truly a remarkable piece from Christian Wilhelm Allers' collection "Rund um die Erde. "
