EDITORS COMMENTS
The Furstenzug, or Procession of Princes, in Dresden, Germany, is a stunning ceramic tile work depicting the rulers of the House of Wettin since its inception in 1127. This historic wall, located in the Albertinum Gallery, showcases the rich history and legacy of the Saxon dynasty. At the heart of this impressive display is Albrecht II, Duke of Saxony and King of Poland, who ruled from 1418 to 1422. Albrecht II is depicted in his regal attire, with a solemn expression and a scepter in his right hand, symbolizing his power and authority. The intricate details of the ceramic tiles bring Albrecht II to life, capturing the essence of the medieval era. The Furstenzug is a testament to the artistic and historical significance of Dresden, a city that has long been a cultural hub of Germany. The wall is made up of over 25,000 individual tiles, each one meticulously crafted to depict the various rulers of the House of Wettin. The tiles were originally created between 1871 and 1876, and the wall was restored in the early 21st century. The Furstenzug is a must-see attraction for anyone interested in German history, art, or royalty. It provides a unique insight into the lives of the rulers of the House of Wettin, and the role they played in shaping the history of Germany. This photograph, taken circa 2008 by Paul Brown for Mary Evans Picture Library, captures the majesty and grandeur of the Furstenzug, a true masterpiece of ceramic art.
