EDITORS COMMENTS
In the heart of Freiburg im Breisgau, a historic city in Baden, Germany, stands the imposing figure of Berthold Schwarz. This magnificent statue, erected in the market-place of the city during the late Middle Ages around 1340, is a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of this region. Berthold Schwarz, also known as Berthold the Black or Berthold VII, was a Count of the House of Hohenberg, a powerful and influential noble family in the Middle Ages. He ruled over the territories of Freiburg and Breisgau from 1323 until his death in 1361. The Schwarz Monument, as it is now known, was erected in his honor, reflecting the deep respect and admiration the people of Freiburg held for their count. The statue, which depicts Berthold Schwarz in full armor, is a masterpiece of medieval art. The intricate details of his armor, the lifelike expression on his face, and the realistic portrayal of his horse and hound, all contribute to the statue's striking presence. The monument was also designed with a practical purpose, as it served as a landmark and meeting place for the people of Freiburg. The Schwarz Monument is an important historical artifact, not only for the city of Freiburg but also for the entire region of Baden. It provides valuable insights into the history of the Middle Ages, the culture of the time, and the political landscape of the area. The statue has survived the test of time, standing proudly in the market-place for over 680 years, and continues to be a source of inspiration and pride for the people of Freiburg. This photograph captures the essence of the Schwarz Monument, showcasing its grandeur, historical significance, and the enduring beauty of medieval art. The image transports us back in time, allowing us to witness a piece of history that continues to captivate and inspire.
