King Frederick William II of Prussia Embracing His Heroic Son, Crown Prince Frederick William, on the Hill of Kostheim
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this color lithograph by Richard Knotel, we witness a poignant moment in history as King Frederick William II of Prussia embraces his valiant son, Crown Prince Frederick William. The scene unfolds on the hill of Kostheim on 1 May 1793 during the tumultuous French Revolutionary Wars. Dressed in their resplendent military uniforms, both father and son stand proudly amidst a battlefield strewn with soldiers and remnants of conflict. The king's face radiates paternal pride and love as he tightly holds his heir to the throne. Their embrace symbolizes not only familial bond but also unity in the face of adversity. The presence of Queen Louise von Mecklenburg-Strelitz is implied but unseen, her spirit undoubtedly lending strength to this powerful tableau. This image was originally featured in "Die Konigin Luise" an illustrated book published by Paul Kittel in Berlin in 1896. Through this print, Knotel captures a significant moment that reflects German history and culture. It immortalizes the bravery and resilience displayed by these esteemed figures during a time when Europe was embroiled in battle. As we gaze upon this artwork today, it serves as a reminder that even amidst chaos and conflict, love can endure and provide solace for those who bear heavy burdens.
