Baden-Baden, the spa town in the Black Forest foothills of southwestern Germany, has drawn visitors to its thermal springs since Roman times, and by the 1890s it was one of Europe's most fashionable resorts. This photochrom print, numbered 1345 in the series of German views, captures the town as tourists of the period would have wanted to remember it. Photochrom was a early color process that printed from hand-tinted photographic negatives, giving scenes like this one a soft, painted look. Prints of this kind were sold as souvenirs and are now valued as a record of how such places appeared at the turn of the century.
