Beschreibung
City views, bird’s-eye maps, engravings and other views of Vienna have existed since the 15th and 16th centuries, and photos since the 19th century, so that the building development of the city can be traced. The art historian Michael Imhof traces the architectural development of the city on the basis of the most interesting architectural illustrations, including those by Salomon Kleiner, Canaletto, Rudolf and Franz von Alt. The publication is a history and picture book that can also be used as a travel guide to discover the city.
