The images, dated from between 1889 and 1911, derive from the private collection of Marc Walter and, like TASCHEN's bestsellingAmerican Odyssey, are further rare examples ofthe Photochrom process, the first technique to obtain lithographic prints from a black and white photo negative.Spanning the length and breadth of Germany, this collection of almost 800 pictures transports us along the Rhine, through the mysticalBlack Forest, to the spa town ofBaden-Baden, and to the historic cities ofBonnandCologne. We travel throughHanoverandThuringen, over therolling Alpine landscape, up the Elbe from Sachsen, throughDresden, Leipzig, Potsdam, BerlinandHamburg, and over to the charming seaside resorts ofOstseeandNordsee.Along the way we take in thecastles of Louis II, exquisite architecture, everydayrural life, traditionalregional costumes, as well as the infrastructural advances of modernity, from mountain trains to glistening boats out at sea. The result is a remarkable testimony to pre-war Germany and a time in which beauty and hope, not hostility and hardship, defined the land. Text in English, French, and German "
