About the Item
Antique Chromolithograph of the Rhine at Bingen with Castle and Vineyards, ca. 1890
This beautifully preserved chromolithograph, titled "Der Rhein bei Bingen" (The Rhine near Bingen), dates to around 1890 and offers a rich panoramic view of one of the most picturesque and historically significant regions of the Middle Rhine Valley in Germany. The scene is masterfully rendered in full color using the chromolithographic technique, which was the most vibrant and refined method of color printing in the late 19th century.
The image showcases the town of Bingen am Rhein nestled along the banks of the Rhine River, with its clustered rooftops, prominent church towers, and the lush surrounding vineyards that characterize this celebrated wine region. The view extends across the river to Rüdesheim, visible on the far right slope, and features two iconic castles—Burg Ehrenfels on the hill and the Mouse Tower (Mäuseturm) prominently situated on a small island in the river. In the background, steamships and sailing vessels navigate the Rhine, emphasizing its continued importance as a major transportation artery.
In the foreground, vineyard workers in traditional attire harvest grapes, adding a charming and human touch to the landscape. Their presence underscores the agricultural heritage of the region, renowned for producing Riesling wines. The detailed vegetation, lively rural life, and panoramic architectural precision make this print both a decorative and educational piece.
These kinds of chromolithographic prints were often used in educational and cultural publications, making them attractive to both collectors of vintage prints and admirers of European historical scenery.
Condition Report:
Very good condition overall. The colors remain vivid and bright, with only minimal signs of age such as slight foxing in the margins and a faint age tone to the paper. No tears, losses, or repairs noted. The paper is stable, and the image is well-centered.
Framing Tips:
To highlight the rich tones of the landscape and the historic atmosphere, consider framing with a dark wood frame such as walnut or ebonized oak. A light beige or off-white acid-free mat will add balance and sophistication. Museum glass is advised to protect the print and prevent glare, especially if displayed in a well-lit room. This piece would complement traditional, rustic, or vintage-style interiors and would look especially striking in a hallway, study, or wine cellar.
