This vintage postcard features a striking black-and-white image of the Henning von der Heide horse statue, originally from the St. Jürgenkapelle and now housed in a museum in Lübeck. Dated 1504, the detailed sculpture depicts a mounted knight in armor raising his sword, accompanied by a kneeling figure and a dragon-like creature, showcased on an ornate wooden pedestal beneath vaulted ceilings. The dramatic posture of the horse and the intricate craftsmanship of the figures capture the medieval artistic style and historical significance.Published by J. Maass in Lübeck and printed by Deutscher Kunstverlag Berlin, this standard-sized postcard (5.5 x 3.5 inches) is an original piece, not a reprint, making it an excellent collectible for enthusiasts of European medieval art and historical sculptures. The postcard is unposted with clean reverse text in German, adding to its authenticity. A perfect addition to collections themed around European history, medieval knights, or art from the Sforza Book of Hours era.
