Antique 1894 Nürnberg Albrecht Dürer Denkmal Photo Cabinet Card Nuremberg Germany

Original antique 1894 photographic view of the Albrecht Dürer Monument in Nürnberg (Nuremberg), Germany.

The mounted photograph shows the famous Albrecht Dürer Denkmal with the surrounding historic Nürnberg architecture clearly visible in the background. The monument honors Albrecht Dürer (1471–1528), the celebrated German Renaissance artist and printmaker who was born and lived much of his life in Nürnberg.

Printed along the lower front:

“1142. Albrecht Dürer-Denkmal.”

The publisher information below appears to read:

“Verlag v. Meissner & Jensen, K.S. Hofphotogr., Dresden 1894”

This dates the image to 1894, making it a particularly nice late-19th-century photographic souvenir of Nürnberg.

The reverse retains an attractive original circular retailer/dealer label reading:

“Papier- u. Comptoirutensilien
Ludw. Carl Beck
Nürnberg
General-Agentur der Geschäftsbücherfabrik
J.C. König & Ebhardt Hannover”

The photograph is mounted on heavy card stock with rounded corners and decorative printed borders. Approximately 6.5 x 4.25 inches based on the ruler shown in the photographs.

A great early Nürnberg image for collectors of German photography, Albrecht Dürer memorabilia, 19th-century photographs, cabinet cards, architectural photography, Nürnberg history, or German Renaissance-related material.
