View of marburg. Watercolour with opaque colours. Signed and dated p. Becker 1874. Elisabeth church. In the background, the hill, which was not yet densely wooded but covered in a semi-open landscape, with the augustenruhe on top, can be seen as an offshoot of the marburg ridge. The ketzerbach canal, which had been arched over shortly after a flood in the middle of the century, flows into the old water of the lahn through one of the smaller half-timbered houses on the bank. A narrow wooden footbridge leads over the ketzerbach at the mouth. In the black water, in which the sky is reflected blue on a sunny day, there is a fishing boat. Date: 1874.
