Basel


The Rhine River serpentines urbanely through the Swiss city of Basel, with its medieval old town center on the south bank, depicted on this poster from artist Hedwig Meyer's north bank vantage point. The twin spires of the Basel Minster punctuate the skyline, as does the cathedral's red sandstone architecture and diamond-shaped multi-colored roof tiles. The town sits where the Swiss, French and German borders meet, making it a fascinating crossroads for residents and travelers alike.
