This impressive picture shows Aachen Cathedral during the magical blue hour, shortly after sunset. The special lighting mood emphasises the architectural beauty of this UNESCO World Heritage Site. Thanks to the use of a shift lens, a flawless, distortion-free perspective was achieved, capturing the monumental architecture of the cathedral in all its splendour.
The mixture of Gothic and Carolingian elements makes Aachen Cathedral a unique masterpiece of European architecture. The empty, softly lit squares in the foreground lend the picture a timeless tranquillity and an impressive sense of depth. Perfect for lovers of architecture, urban photography and historical art.
Ideal as a wall mural, poster or canvas print - this motif brings the majestic aura of Aachen into any home or office.
