Siegessäule in Berlijn 1875 - 1890

This photograph, taken by Friedrich Albert Schwartz between 1875 and 1890, depicts the Siegessäule, a victory column in Berlin, Germany. The column, topped with the statue of Victoria, goddess of victory, commemorates Prussian victories in the Danish War of 1864, the Austro-Prussian War of 1866, and the Franco-Prussian War of 1870-71. The image, currently held at the Rijksmuseum, showcases the column in its surrounding park, capturing a moment in time of significant historical and architectural importance for Berlin.
