Vibrant illustrated postcard of the Rheinbrücke (Rhine Bridge) at Bonn, Germany, painted by artist C. Pfaff. The romanticized scene shows the stone bridge gateway with red-roofed towers spanning the broad Rhine, a steam paddle-wheeler named "Bonn" passing beneath the iron arch span while church spires and the rooftops of the city rise beyond. The image uses bright chromolithographic colors with a stylized, illustrative quality. Captioned "Bonn Rheinbrücke." Published by Verlag Edition König, Heidelberg, as V. König's Künstlerkarte No. 72; "Gesetzlich geschützt" (legally protected). Undivided back.
