EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the intense focus of Crown Prince Wilhelm of Germany and Prussia (Friedrich Wilhelm Victor August Ernst, 1882-1951) during the tumultuous years of the First World War. Seated at his desk, the future monarch is deeply engrossed in studying a detailed map spread out before him. The room is adorned with the trappings of war, including a large Prussian eagle standard, a sword, and various military decorations and ribbons. The Crown Prince wears the uniform of a general, complete with a field cap bearing the distinctive Prussian crown, and he clutches a pair of compasses in one hand, indicating his involvement in military planning and strategy. The image, dated between 1914 and 1918, offers a poignant glimpse into the daily life of a high-ranking military leader during the Great War. With the weight of the world on his shoulders, Wilhelm's determined expression speaks volumes about the challenges and sacrifices of war time leadership.
