Bittner f. N. 40 / de Pian invt.". At the lower part inscribed: "Lodaisea". Date: c. 1818 Description: The graphic shows medieval-looking architecture, presumably a fortress or bridge, embedded in an urban environment. The picture is dominated by detailed walls and crenellated towers. A multi-storey, mechanical bridge construction connects the wall sections. Gothic spires are visible in the background, which could indicate a church or cathedral. The depiction is done with a fineness that suggests an etching or steel engraving. The condition of the paper suggests age and use. Source: Norbert Bittner (1786 -1851 ) Theaterdecorationen nach den Original Skitzen des k.k.
