EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases two prestigious military decorations from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The top image features a plate of a large cross with a sword, which belonged to Ferdinand I of Bulgaria, specially crafted for the king by CF Rothe. Made of gold, silver, and enamels, this exquisite piece measures 8.9 cm in height and 8.4 cm in width, weighing approximately 70 g. The bottom image displays another remarkable plate and cross of the Order for Bravery's first class that once belonged to King William II Prussian. This special model is known as "with heads of dead" due to its unique design elements. Crafted from silver, vermeil, and enamels, the plate has a diameter of 6.6 cm and weighs around 50 g while the badge stands at a height of 8.5 cm with a width of 5.5 cm and weighs about 60 g. These magnificent military decorations are not only symbols of bravery but also reflections of historical significance during World War I era Europe. They represent the honor bestowed upon individuals who displayed exceptional courage on the battlefield or made significant contributions to their respective nations' military efforts. Photographed by Luisa Ricciarini as part of her private collection, this stunning print captures both the beauty and historical value associated with these Bulgarian and Prussian orders for bravery from over a century ago.
