The Hofschauspielhaus (Hofburg Theater), Vienna, Austria, EUR Semper & Hasenauer, architect(s). From the American Architect and Building News, December 6, 1890. 8.75 by 13.25 inches. VG+ condition with browning around the edges and light crinkling. Gelatine Print. This picture is extremely hard to find. The American Architect and Building News had a very small circulation during this time and these original gelatine prints only appeared in a very limited number of issues that were distributed to a few prominent architects. This is from the architect Bruce Price's collection. It measures 8.75 by 13.25 inches. Has a mat border and foam core backing (not attached to the picture). The whole picture measures 14.25 by 11.75 inches (with border). Extraordinary detail in this early photographic print. Shrink wrapped.
