The views in Hamburg are closely related to a series of etchings by Anton Radl published about 1825. Most topographical views on Bohemian glass were cut by engravers to supply a thriving tourist trade. Enamelled and gilded views are rarely seen, especially on larger presentation goblets. A goblet gilded with views in Carlsbad is in the Passau Glasmuseum, see Georg Höltl, Das Böhmische Glas 1700-1950, vol.2 Empire-Biedermeier, p.178, fig.263
