    I picked up this hand colored etching at a yard sale this morning.
    I found the Artist, Willy Scholz, But couldn't read the title and location. Hope someone can make it out for me.

    Thank you very much anundverkaufen. Now knowing where it is helps to figure age a little better also. The Statue pictured, William I. Was destroyed in 1945 and a new one not erected till 1993. Scholz died in 1965. So most likely this is a pre-war etching?

    Most likely, unless he did it from memory or a photograph.
