One of the most breathtaking Baroque interiors in the world fills this large-format chrome card: the library of Stift Melk, a Benedictine abbey perched above the Danube in Lower Austria, its floor-to-ceiling walnut shelving packed with gilded leather-bound volumes, a painted celestial fresco by Paul Troger (1731) billowing across the vaulted ceiling, and two historic globes anchoring the foreground — a room immortalized by Umberto Eco as the model for the labyrinthine library in The Name of the Rose. Fotografiert by Baumgartner of Graz for a dedicated Stift Melk postcard series, this unused example shows the room in pristine photographic clarity, a must-have for collectors of monastic architecture, Baroque art, or bibliophile subjects.
