EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a dramatic moment during the Napoleonic Wars in January 1807. Prussian soldiers, depicted in vivid color lithography by Carl Rochling, are seen evading French captivity. The image is taken from the book "Die Konigin Luise" (Paul Kittel, Berlin, 1896), which tells the story of Queen Louise of Mecklenburg-Strelitz. In this scene, we witness the soldiers' desperate attempt to escape their captors as they hide and navigate through a dense forest. The harsh winter landscape adds to the atmosphere of hardship and struggle faced by these brave men. Snow-covered trees provide them with temporary cover as they make their way towards freedom. The War of the Fourth Coalition was raging at this time, and Prussia was occupied by French forces. This image serves as a reminder of the resilience and determination displayed by those who fought for their country's independence. Through this historic photograph, we catch a glimpse into German history and European warfare during that era. It also highlights the significance of Queen Louise's role in inspiring her people during such difficult times. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece of artistry from Fine Art Finder for us to appreciate and reflect upon one chapter in our shared human history.
