Omslag met drie prenten van plaatsen en gebouwen in het Koninkrijk Hannover 1839

This is the cover of a publication titled "Gallerie der ausgezeichnesten und interessantesten Ansichten von Städten, Domen, Kirchen und sonstigen Baudenkmälern alter und neuer Zeit des Königreichs Hannover" ("Gallery of the most distinguished and interesting views of cities, cathedrals, churches and other monuments of old and new times of the Kingdom of Hanover"). The cover, created by C. Bösendahl in 1839, announces the publication of a series of engravings of notable sites in the Kingdom of Hanover. The publication was intended to be a collection of original drawings by the artist, executed by the leading engravers of the day, and accompanied by historical texts. This small cover, measuring 241 mm in height and 77 mm in width, is a fascinating glimpse into the cultural and artistic climate of 19th-century Germany.
