Illustration from Friedrich Mayer: "Picturesque Walk through the Pegnitz Valley," drawn and engraved from nature with 24 steel engravings by Alexander Richard Wilhelm Marx, Nuremberg 1844.

Review in the Schornsches Kunstblatt of August 21, 1845, p. 279:

"The talented artist Alexander Richard Marx, a student of the excellent Friedr. Geißler in Nuremberg, deserves twofold thanks: firstly, for what he has achieved, in which he has grasped and interpreted models from nature with great intelligence and taste." has been able to reproduce, but especially for the declared effort to draw attention to a small country which, almost unknown to many, and only superficially known to others, is not only so attractive due to its peculiar beauties, but also stands in such close relation to our truly unique Nuremberg […]

In this form, the present work is a pleasing gift in every respect, not only for the friend of Nuremberg's art and history, but especially also for those interested in its natural surroundings and for the joyful hikers, some of whom may find in it a pleasant reminder to carefully follow the beautiful Pegnitz valley with its various twists and turns, the other to preserve the memory of previous hikes in the beautifully designed book and to always renew them with pleasure. Furthermore, with regard to the artistic treatment, it is particularly worth emphasizing how the otherwise so popular machine in these lovely steel engravings has been used with great moderation almost exclusively in the air and the artist's loving Entering into what is given everywhere presents itself pleasantly to the viewer and invites him to immerse himself in it in the most pleasing way.”
