Parsonage of St. Nicholas, Leipsic, Saxony, 1897. Hugo Light. Gelatine

An Original Gelatine Print of the Parsonage of St. Nicholas in Leipsic, Saxony. EARLY PICTURE.  Hugo Light, Architect. From the American Architect and Building News, October 16, 1897.

This picture is extremely hard to find. The American Architect and Building News had a very small circulation during this time and these original gelatines only appeared in a very limited number of issues that were distributed to a few prominent architects. This is from the architect Bruce Price's collection. It measures 12.75 by 8.5 inches. Has a mat border and foam core backing (not attached to the picture). The whole picture measures approximately 16 by 12 inches (with border). Extraordinary detail in this early photographic print. Shrink wrapped.

Plan is in VG+ condition with browning around the edges and light crinkling.
