1657 1688 1713 Brandenburg Curly Elector Frederick Friedrich I Ii Oval Prussia Prussian Shield
EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite oval print showcases the regal presence of Friedrich I, the first King of Prussia and former Elector of Brandenburg. Born in 1657, Friedrich ascended to the throne of Brandenburg in 1688, and later, in 1701, he was elected King in Prussia by the Diet of the Estates. The image captures the monarch in his prime, wearing the insignia of his royal titles with pride. Friedrich's elaborate wig, a symbol of his wealth and status, frames his stern yet intelligent face. The shield on his chest bears the double-headed eagle, the heraldic symbol of Brandenburg and Prussia, signifying the unification of the two territories under his rule. Atop his head sits the royal crown, adorned with precious stones and intricate designs. The numbers "I" and "II" on the print represent the two distinct roles that Friedrich held during his reign - Elector of Brandenburg and King of Prussia. The long reign of Friedrich I, from 1688 to 1713, marked a significant period of growth and development for the Prussian state. His military reforms and diplomatic alliances strengthened Prussia's position in Europe, setting the stage for its future prominence. This evocative print is a testament to the enduring legacy of Friedrich I, a monarch who left an indelible mark on the history of Prussia and Brandenburg.
