Otto Von Bismarck, 1886. Otto von Bismarck (1815-1898) became the Prussian prime minister in 1862. Victory against the Austrians in 1866 led to the reorganisation of Germany under the leadership of Prussia. During this time Bismarck was an influential figure, who went on to further unify German feeling during the Franco-Prussian war (1870-1871), and from being universally disliked became highly popular and the first Chancellor of the German Empire.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Otto Von Bismarck, the influential statesman who played a pivotal role in shaping German history. Taken in 1884 by artist Hünemann and published in The Magazine of Art two years later, this portrait showcases Bismarck's commanding presence. Born in 1815, Bismarck rose to prominence as the Prussian prime minister in 1862. His victory against the Austrians four years later led to the reorganization of Germany under Prussia's leadership. During the Franco-Prussian war from 1870 to 1871, he further unified German sentiment and became highly popular among his countrymen. The engraving depicts a man with an air of authority and determination. Bismarck's stern expression reflects his unwavering commitment to his political agenda. As Germany's first Chancellor of the German Empire, he navigated complex diplomatic relationships while consolidating power within his own nation. Franz Seraph von Lenbach skillfully captured Bismarck's essence through this monochrome portrait. The artist masterfully highlights every detail – from the lines etched on Bismarck's face that speak volumes about his experiences to his dignified posture that exudes confidence. This print serves as a testament to Otto Von Bismarck's enduring legacy as one of Germany’s most significant historical figures. It immortalizes him at a time when he transitioned from being universally disliked to becoming highly respected and admired by many across Europe for his political prowess and unification efforts.
