EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, created by the skilled hand of Georg Greismann in 1885, showcases the imposing figure of Prince Charles Alexander of Lorraine (1712-1780). Hailing from the House of Guise, a cadet branch of the House of Lorraine, Charles Alexander held significant political and military power in the European theatre during the 18th century. Born in Nancy, France, Charles Alexander was a prominent Austrian general and governor of the Austrian Netherlands. His military career began at a young age, serving under the Austrian Emperor Charles VI. He later became a trusted advisor to Maria Theresa, the reigning Empress of Austria, and played a crucial role in the War of the Austrian Succession. In this striking portrait, Prince Charles Alexander is depicted wearing the full regalia of his rank and titles. He is shown wearing a richly decorated coat of arms, adorned with the emblem of the Duchy of Lorraine, which features a shield with a cross and an eagle. The prince's armour, intricately designed and meticulously crafted, exudes an aura of power and authority. His ringlets, styled in the fashionable manner of the time, frame a stern yet intelligent face. The oval-shaped engraving, with its vibrant colors, highlights the intricate details of the prince's attire and accessories. The background, filled with ornate patterns and ornaments, further emphasizes the grandeur and opulence of the era. This engraving is a testament to the rich history of Europe during the 18th century, and the pivotal role played by individuals like Prince Charles Alexander of Lorraine in shaping the political and military landscape of the time. It serves as a reminder of the intricacies and complexities of European history and the enduring legacy of its influential figures.
