EDITORS COMMENTS
This color lithograph depicts Frederick the Great, also known as Old Fritz, at the Castle of Lissa on the evening of the historic Battle of Leuthen in 1757. The image showcases a dark and atmospheric scene, with candlelight illuminating the steps leading up to the castle. Frederick II, King of Prussia and a prominent figure in European history, stands proudly at the entrance of his royal dwelling. Dressed in regal attire befitting his status as a monarch, he exudes an air of authority and determination. The illustration transports us back to a significant moment in time when Frederick's Prussian forces achieved a decisive victory over their Austrian adversaries during the Seven Years' War. This battle was fought in Silesia (now part of Poland) and marked one of Frederick's greatest military triumphs. The image not only captures Frederick's noble presence but also offers insight into Germanic culture and architecture from that era. The castle itself is reminiscent of fairy tale castles with its small size and intricate design. Overall, this print provides viewers with a glimpse into both historical events and artistic representation from Carl Rohling's "House of Hohenzollern in Pictures and Words". It serves as a testament to Frederick's legacy as one of Europe's most influential leaders while showcasing elements such as candlelight that add depth to this visually striking composition.
