1750B4SB1E23SY47Nuremberg 1750. Ca. 39.5 x 71.5 cm. Kept in a white passe-partout. One large etching. Large etching with a spectacular night view of a fireworks display during the Nuremberg peace festival. This event took place in Nuremberg in July 1650 to celebrate the end of the Thirty Years' War 1618-1648 one of the most devastating conflicts in European history. The festival was intended as a sign of hope for a better future in Europe and particularly Germany. The present etching may have been printed to spread this message of peace.The Thirty Years' War started as a civil war within the Holy Roman Empire but eventually became a wider European affair. Primarily fought in present day Germany however it brought disease and starvation to the region and depopulated large areas. After five years of negotiation a peace treaty was finally signed in October 1648. Any remaining unresolved issues were negotiated during a major diplomatic congress held in Nuremberg between May 1649 and July 1650. When the negotiations were concluded a peace festival was held which included a large fireworks show. The present etching shows this spectacular display with the numerous skyrockets shot from all sides of the castle. Remarkable details are the burning statue in the middle and the men with flaming swords surrounding it.The image was engraved after designs by German artists Peter Troschel ca. 1620-after 1667 and Michael Herr 1591-1661. In was first printed in 1650 and included a title at the top and a legend at the bottom. The present version most likely dates from the middle of the 18th century but has been significantly enlarged especially lengthwise. These new proportions make the image even more spectacular.The work has been folded in the past the lower part of the left margin has been restored insect droppings in a small area on the left side of the head margin not affecting the etched image. Otherwise in good condition. unknown

1978100985New York March 21 1978. 1978. Very good. - Over 350 words penned on both sides of his personal 10-7/8 inch high by 7-1/4 inch wide stationery. Responding to a brief mailgram he received from Hervey on March 19th informing him of her mother Faith Baldwin's death. Rabbi Kurt L. Metzger writes a lengthy consoling letter. "Though it is always bitter and painful to loose sic a dear one and especially a mother such as yours I do hope that after the initial experience of her passing away a feeling of gratitude will replace your emotions of sorrow. For the last two years must have been for your mother a horrible period of frustration since she was no longer able to live a life of independence." He describes how she has been relieved of her pain and frustration at "no longer being able to use her God-given gift of being productive in the literary field in which she has secured for herself the immortality of an extremely beloved and highly appreciated author." He hopes that although her mother has passed they will stay in touch "and continue a relationship which I enjoyed with your mother so much over the years." Signed "Kurt". Folded for mailing with a short tear along the left edge and offsetting near the middle. Very good with the original mailgram from Hervey. <p>A friend of Faith Baldwin Rabbi Kurt L.
