EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving titled "You should sing Te Deum in Breslau" transports us back to a significant moment under the reign of Frederick II the Great of Prussia. The image showcases a military camp, bustling with activity and filled with soldiers, officers, and officials. The composition is richly detailed, capturing the essence of royal power and authority. In the foreground, we see a group of soldiers receiving instructions from their commanding officer on horseback. Their uniforms are meticulously depicted, highlighting their allegiance to the Prussian army. Tents dotting the landscape suggest that this scene takes place during a campaign or military exercise. The presence of animals adds an interesting dynamic to the print. Horses play a prominent role as they are not only ridden by officers but also used for transportation and logistics within the camp. This emphasizes both practicality and prestige associated with cavalry units. The artist skillfully captures a sense of hierarchy within this scene; it is evident that these men are partaking in an important event under Frederick II's rule. The title suggests that they are preparing to sing Te Deum in Breslau - perhaps celebrating victory or giving thanks for divine protection during wartime. Overall, this historical print offers viewers a glimpse into 18th-century military life while showcasing German School's artistic prowess through intricate details and vibrant colors.
