Hamburg still has seven historical advertising columns erected around 1879.
The Eighth, here at the Lombardsbrücke was destroyed in 2010 in a traffic accident and later rebuilt faithfully.
The listed Litfaß columns are made of a brick-walled base, rounded off by a rosette ring. The iron construction on it is covered with a green ceramic roof (green glazed beaver tail tiles) in the form of a cone and topped with the so-called "Hamburger Rose".

Welcome! I am an Artist/Photographer based in Edinburgh, Scotland. My interests are wide and varied and this is reflected in my subject matter. I enjoy finding the beauty in even the most mundane subjects and the challenge of depicting the small details which are sometimes overlooked. Where possible, I research my subjects to give me a better understanding, which in turn allows me to adapt my approach to each one. I do not restrict myself to any particular style or media as this gives me the freedom to create my vision on each individual piece. I hope you enjoy browsing my galleries as much as I have enjoyed creating the works. Copyright © Yvonne Johnstone 2024. All rights reserved. All artwork in this gallery is original and uniquely...
