Crisp photographic printed postcard of the Marktplatz in Mainz, Germany, centered on the Renaissance Marktbrunnen — the ornate 1526 market fountain donated by Cardinal Albert of Mainz, with its column of carved figures surmounted by a Madonna. Market vendors with baskets and produce occupy the foreground square; the surrounding buildings include an Art Nouveau facade at center with the "Gust. Mayer" shop sign, decorated with elaborate stucco ornamentation, and other late-19th-century commercial buildings. The sign "Gebrüder Klein" is visible to the right of the fountain. The scene captures a working market day in Wilhelmine-era Mainz.
