EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Ludwig, Prince of Hohenlohe-Waldenburg-Bartenstein: A German Military Commander in the French Service" 2. Subtitle: "A Historical Portrait of a Remarkable Figure in European Military History" 3. Description: This portrait depicts Ludwig, Prince of Hohenlohe-Waldenburg-Bartenstein (1765-1829), a German military commander who made a significant mark in the French military during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The image, captured in an elegant oil painting, reveals the prince's regal bearing and military prowess. Born into the prestigious Hohenlohe family, Ludwig entered the military at a young age and quickly rose through the ranks. In 1792, he joined the French army, where he would serve for over three decades, becoming a trusted advisor and commander to several French monarchs. His military career reached its pinnacle during the Napoleonic Wars, where he distinguished himself in numerous battles, including Austerlitz, Wagram, and Waterloo. Despite his German heritage, Ludwig remained loyal to the French crown, earning the moniker "the German Marshals of France." His strategic acumen and leadership skills were instrumental in securing French victories against the Austrian and Prussian forces. However, his allegiance to France did not prevent him from advocating for the interests of the German states within the French Empire. This portrait, a testament to the prince's military accomplishments and historical significance, offers a glimpse into the complexities of European politics and military history during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The image, available through Mary Evans Prints Online, is a valuable addition to any collection focusing on European military history, German history, or the Napoleonic Wars.
