Der Große Kurfürst 1620-1688. - Gemälde von Camphausen, 1934
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print showcases a remarkable painting from 1934, depicting the influential figure of Frederick William (1620-1688), also known as Der Große Kurfürst. As Elector of Brandenburg and Duke of Prussia, he held significant power over these territories from 1640 until his demise. The artwork, created by Wilhelm Camphausen, beautifully captures the essence of this esteemed ruler. Mounted on horseback with an air of authority and determination, Frederick William exudes strength and leadership. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke that brings life to both man and beast. Frederick William's military prowess and political achievements earned him the title "the Great Elector". This portrait serves as a testament to his strategic brilliance during times of war while highlighting his role in shaping German history. Displayed within the pages of Die Großen der Weltgeschichte, published by Eckstein-Halpaus in Dresden in 1934, this print holds historical significance beyond its artistic value. It offers viewers a glimpse into the seventeenth-century battlefield where royalty clashed for power and dominance. As we admire this extraordinary piece today, it allows us to appreciate not only the talent of Wilhelm Camphausen but also the legacy left behind by Frederick William – a visionary leader who forever shaped Germany's destiny.
