EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Raid on Gotha" depicts a significant moment in history during the Seven Years War. Created by Richard Knoetel, this colour lithograph showcases Prussian hussars proudly displaying their spoils of war from a captured French baggage train. The artwork was featured in the book "Der alte Fritz in funfzig Bildern fur Jung und Alt" published around 1910 and illustrated by Carl Rochling and Richard Knotel. The image transports us back to September 15,1757, when King Frederick the Great led his army into battle against the French forces. This raid symbolizes not only the bravery and strength of Prussia but also highlights the strategic military tactics employed during that era. The attention to detail in this print is remarkable, capturing every element of warfare - from soldiers clad in traditional uniforms to weaponry used at that time. It serves as a testament to German history and culture, showcasing Germany's rich military heritage. As we admire this historical masterpiece, it reminds us of Europe's turbulent past while appreciating how far we have come as nations united under the European Union today. Let this image be a reminder of our shared history and an inspiration for peace among nations.
