Bingen – Lasinsky, Johann Adolf (Simmern 1808 – Dusseldorf 1871). (View of Bingen.) Seen downstream from the Drusus Bridge with great enclosed vineyard in the foreground. On the right the ruins of Klopp Castle. On the other bank above the mouth an estate, on the opposite bank of the Rhine Ehrenfels and on the heights the Rossel Tower. Figures, partly in a boat. Toned pen lithograph. Inscribed: (Recorded from nature and lithographed by J. A. Lasinsky 1828. / Frankfort a/M. C. Jügel.), title as above in German-French parallel text. 22.4 x 29.3 cm.

In  its  nervous  line  conduct  ahead  of  its  time ,

unmistakably, and promptly lithographed after own sketch, and thus “standing out highly advantageously from the leaves of much smaller size engraved after him by other artists … Lasinsky’s ‘sensibility, keenest power of observation, realistic study of nature, and talent for large wide landscapes’ have been praised” (Schulte).
