The Royal Gate in Königsberg. Schutz (fl. ca. 1840–1850), graphic artist; Möhring, Gebrüder (printing house; fl. ca. 1840–1850), publisher. The view shows the “Königstor” (Royal Gate) of the fort in Königsberg. The façade features bas-reliefs depicting King Ottokar von Böhmen, Prince Albert, and Frederick I. At the end of the 18th and beginning of the 19th centuries the city was equipped with 15 modern forts and a defensive rampart (Lithuanian Rampart) with decorative gates: the Royal Gate built in 1765, the Sakaimio Gate (1848), and the Roses Garden (Rossgarter/Rosse, 1813). The lithograph’s author is an unidentified draughtsman and lithographer named Schütz, perhaps identical to Johann Friedrich Schütz (1817–1888). Printed at the Gebrüder Möhring workshop; probably created in Königsberg. Date: 1840–1850. Medium: lithograph/graphic print; album. Dimensions: height 11.4 cm, width 18.5 cm.
