The new Church of St. Nicholas at Hamburg,1845. Creator: Unknown.

The new Church of St. Nicholas at Hamburg, 1845. View of a neo-Gothic church in Germany. '...at the base of the tower, we are struck with the deeply recessed porch and its sculptural enrichments; thence the eye rises to the magnificent western window of the belfry and its profusely embellished angles; the enriched canopies at the spring of the spire; its bristling finials, its crocketed ribs, perforation, and tracery, carry the admiration of the beholder to the extreme point. Returning to the main body of the edifice, what an assemblage of enrichment bursts upon the eye in the gables, buttresses, pierced parapets, pinnacles, crosses, and finials; whilst the elegant lantern surmounting the choir roof adds grace to the effect of the entire design'. From "Illustrated London News", 1845, Vol VII.
