Bayen Thurm, Cologne, 1845. Boats on the River Rhine at Cologne in Germany, with the Bayenturm in the background. '...the picturesque river scenery of the suburbs, and its industrial population; for they attend to matters of more import than dancing and beer-drinking at the guinguettes. In the distance is seen a steamer, strangely jostling with the Roman Colonia [the tower dates from 1220], and the times when Cologne was called "the Rome of the North"'. From "Illustrated London News", 1845, Vol VII.
