Nearly complete general view from the opposite bank of the Rhine into the Nahe Valley up to Drusus Bridge. On the left above the town the ruins of Klopp Castle.

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. 22.6 x 29.1 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). – Remarkable point of view . Also see View of Bingen (from the Drusus Bridge)
