EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving titled "Queen Louise of Prussia making her son Prince William a crown of cornflowers during their flight to Memel to escape Napoleon's invading French army, 1806" we are transported back in time to witness a tender moment between a mother and her child. Queen Louise, adorned in an elegant dress, delicately weaves together a crown of cornflowers for her beloved son, Prince William. The scene takes place during their desperate escape from the clutches of Napoleon's forces. The image exudes affection and love as Queen Louise bestows upon her young prince not only protection but also a symbol of hope and resilience. The choice of cornflowers is significant; they represent loyalty and devotion, qualities that resonate deeply within the hearts of both mother and son. As they rest momentarily on their journey, the black-and-white print captures the emotions running through their veins - fear mingled with determination, uncertainty tempered by unwavering familial bond. Their attire reflects the fashion trends of early 19th-century Europe while emphasizing their royal status. This engraving serves as a poignant reminder not only of historical events but also showcases the strength found within family ties amidst adversity. It encapsulates the spirit of survival and unity that prevailed during tumultuous times in European history. Bridgeman Images' reproduction allows us to appreciate this masterpiece from our own time while immersing ourselves in an era marked by bravery, sacrifice, and enduring love.
