Gade, i forgrunden moské og fritstående minaret 1570

"Gade, i forgrunden moské og fritstående minaret" (Street, in the foreground a mosque and a freestanding minaret) is a 1570 woodcut by Melchior Lorck, a Danish artist known for his travel sketches and engravings. This detailed depiction of a street scene, featuring a mosque with a prominent minaret, likely represents Lorck's observations during his travels in the Middle East. The work exhibits the characteristic linear precision and attention to architectural detail of 16th-century European prints, providing a glimpse into a distant culture through the eyes of a European traveler.
