EDITORS COMMENTS
Prince Otto von Bismarck, Duke of Lauenburg (1815-1898), the renowned Prusso-German statesman and first Chancellor of the German Empire, is depicted in this engraving as he addresses the German Reichstag in February 1888. The image captures a significant moment in German history, as Bismarck, a key architect of German unification, delivered important speeches to the legislative body during his tenure as Chancellor. Born on April 1, 1815, in Schönhausen Palace, Bismarck rose to prominence through his diplomatic skills and military prowess. He played a pivotal role in the unification of Germany in the late 19th century, leading Prussia to several victories and ultimately securing the title of Chancellor in 1871. This engraving, produced by ILN (Illustrated London News), showcases Bismarck's commanding presence as he addresses the Reichstag, with a sea of attentive parliamentarians in the background. His stern expression and confident posture convey the gravity of the situation and his unwavering determination as a leader. Bismarck's tenure as Chancellor lasted until 1890, when he was dismissed by Kaiser Wilhelm II. Despite his eventual ousting, his legacy as a visionary statesman and architect of German unity remains undisputed. This evocative engraving serves as a testament to his enduring impact on German history.
