Gold Bakery Lion, Schwerin, Germany Postcard
"Gold Bakery Lion, Schwerin, Germany" by Catherine Sherman
A golden lion holds a pretzel on a shop in Schwerin, Germany. Pretzels were a symbol for a bakery for those who couldn't read.
Lions are popular in Schwerin, perhaps in homage to the founder of Schwerin, Henry the Lion (German: Heinrich der Löwe; 1129/1131 – 6 August 1195, also known as Henry III, Duke of Saxony (ruled 1142-1180) and Henry XII, Duke of Bavaria.
In addition to Schwerin, Henry was the founder of Munich (1157) and Lübeck (1159); he also founded and developed numerous other cities in Northern Germany and Bavaria, a.o. Augsburg, Hildesheim, Stade, Kassel, Güstrow, Lüneburg, Salzwedel, and Brunswick. In Brunswick, his capital, he had a bronze lion, his heraldic animal, erected in the courtyard of his castle Dankwarderode in 1166—the first bronze statue north of the Alps. Later, he had Brunswick Cathedral built close to the statue.

Bought 10 Shakespeare quotes postcards and have framed them individually and placed them around the house Love them, some are funny and some are deep and meaningful! Lovely background on some, excellent printed words. A couple of plain white cards with black print - very stricking

My order was probably an awkward one! I asked for a range of different fine-art prints, in postcard size. It was all freshly printed, delivered quickly and at a very reasonable price. Best quality matt finish I've seen on a fine-art print.
