Więcej o książce
In February 1945, Dresden, the historic Saxon residence and current capital of the Free State of Saxony, was almost completely destroyed. In recent years, it has experienced a remarkable rebirth. Today, the silhouette of this charming city along the Elbe River is reminiscent of the beauty celebrated in many paintings. Through stories and anecdotes, Matthias Gretzschel guides readers through the history, art treasures, monuments, and hidden beauties of his hometown. He recounts tales of Augustus the Strong, Canaletto, who often painted Dresden, and Gottfried Semper, who designed the Zwinger and the opera house. The narrative also touches on significant historical events, the recent past, and modern architecture. Accompanied by numerous large-format color photographs by Toma Babovic, the book vividly showcases the beauty of this Elbe metropolis and its surroundings.
