EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant color lithograph captures the historic moment when Wilhelm I, King of Prussia and first German Emperor, is recognized as the Kaiser of the newly united German Empire at the Treaty of Versailles in 1871. The image showcases Wilhelm I amidst a regal setting, surrounded by his military entourage and holding a sword symbolizing his authority. The illustration comes from "House of Hohenzollern in Pictures and Words" a publication by Carl Rohling and Richard Sternfeld that offers an intimate glimpse into the history of this influential dynasty. Published around 1900 by Martin Oldenbourg in Berlin, it serves as a visual testament to Germany's rich monarchic heritage. Wilhelm I's ascension to Kaiser marked a pivotal moment for Germany, solidifying its position as a formidable European power. The treaty signed at Versailles not only ended the Franco-Prussian War but also laid down the foundations for modern Germany, uniting various states under one central leadership. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back to an era defined by grandeur and ambition. It reminds us of Wilhelm I's significant role in shaping German history while highlighting the intricate details that make up our collective past. This artwork serves as both an educational tool and a window into Europe's dynamic political landscape during the late 19th century.
