EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph captures a defining moment in history - King Frederick II, The Great of Prussia, at the Battle of Rossbach in 1757. As one of the most influential monarchs of his time, Frederick led his army to victory against a French force twice its size during the Seven Years War. In this scene, we see King Frederick observing the progress of the battle through a field telescope. His commanding presence is accentuated by two horsemen riding past him, with one respectfully doffing his hat as they pass. The image exudes power and determination as smoke billows from cannons in the background. The print beautifully portrays the essence of warfare in the 18th century - soldiers on horseback charging into battle under their country's flags. It showcases not only military personnel but also highlights the importance of animals like horses on which these brave men relied.

Through this image, we are reminded of King Frederick II's legacy as a revered sovereign who shaped European history through his military prowess and political reforms.
