EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Albrecht Theodor Graf Emil von Roon, a prominent figure in Prussian history during the 19th century. Taken around 1872 by William Holl, this portrait captures the essence of von Roon's commanding presence as both a soldier and politician. Dressed in his military uniform adorned with medals and an iconic spiked helmet, von Roon exudes power and authority. His stern expression reflects the weight of his responsibilities as Minister of War from 1859 to 1873. As one of the key figures behind Prussia's military reforms, he played a crucial role in shaping its armed forces during a time marked by political tensions and conflicts. The engraving beautifully highlights every intricate detail of von Roon's attire, emphasizing his status as a statesman. The iron cross medal proudly displayed on his chest symbolizes his dedication to serving Prussia with honor. This print transports us back to an era defined by political turmoil and war - specifically the Franco-Prussian War that took place between 1870 and 1871. It serves as a reminder of the significant events that shaped European history during this period. Preserved through time, this remarkable image allows us to appreciate not only von Roon's contribution but also the artistry captured by William Holl. It stands as a testament to their legacies within their respective fields - politics for von Roon and photography for Holl.
