Views of Zwickau. 1870s. 12 albumen prints, mounted to cards. Each 11,3 x 15,8 cm (mounts 21,6 x 29,5 cm).

A cohesive group of 19th-century topographical photographs depicting Zwickau and its surroundings, combining views of prominent civic buildings, historic landmarks, and residential architecture with river landscapes and urban panoramas. The series presents both the city’s medieval heritage - such as the Gothic Gewandhaus - and its rapid late 19th-century development through Gründerzeit public and private buildings, reflecting Zwickau’s growing economic importance.
