EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur and historical significance of the Furstenzug, also known as the Procession of the Dukes, in Dresden, Germany. The mural, composed of an impressive 25,000 Meissen tiles, depicts a procession of 35 noble figures spanning from Konrad the Great in the 12th century to Friedrich August III, Saxony's last king who reigned from 1904 to 1918. Originally painted by Wilhelm Walter between 1870 and 1876, this magnificent artwork underwent a transformation when its stucco began to deteriorate. Around 1906-07, it was meticulously replaced with exquisite tiles that now adorn Auguststrasse. In this particular detail captured by photographer Paul Seheult, we are treated to a glimpse of two notable kings: August II and August III. The architectural beauty surrounding this mural is awe-inspiring as well. Set against Dresden's urban backdrop and framed within an ornate building facade, it serves as a testament to both artistic mastery and cultural heritage. Visitors flock here from all over Europe and beyond for its sheer magnificence. As you immerse yourself in this image print by EyeUbiquitous_20098628 (GERMANY), let your imagination transport you back through centuries of history.
