EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a portrait of Friedrich Wilhelm III, the esteemed King of Prussia from 1797 to 1840. The creator of this masterpiece remains unknown, adding an air of mystery and intrigue to the image. This particular photograph is a reproduction from "Gestalten Der Weltgeschichte" a remarkable book featuring cigarette-card portrait miniatures that depict influential figures in world history spanning four centuries. Friedrich Wilhelm III was not only a monarch but also a father to five sons, including future kings Frederick William IV and William I, who would later become the first Emperor of united Germany. The oval-shaped miniature captures the essence and regality of this distinguished ruler with its vibrant colors and attention to detail. The original artwork by Henrik Ploetz served as inspiration for this print, showcasing his exceptional talent in capturing the likeness and character of historical figures. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to Germany in 1933 when it was created - an era marked by significant political changes. This print serves as both a testament to Friedrich Wilhelm III's reign and an homage to Ploetz's artistic prowess. It allows us to appreciate the rich history behind each figure portrayed within "Gestalten Der Weltgeschichte" while reminding us that even great leaders like Friedrich Wilhelm III were shaped by their times.
