[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 9826943, member: 2844"]It looks like a facsimile of some sort of an engraving originally published by Matthäus Merian the Elder. Matthäus Merian was an engraver and publisher. There are many of these facsimiles or later prints. Btw, his name is Matthäus Merian, with an 'h', not a 'b'. Matthäus = Matthew. The name of the city is Königsberg, with an 'e', not Königsburg with a 'u'. Königsberg is currently known as Kaliningrad. Königsburg is a castle ruin.[/QUOTE]
