EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a pivotal moment in history, depicting the conviction of Johann Friedrich Struensee, the royal doctor of Christian VII of Sweden and lover of Queen Caroline Mathilde. In 1772, their scandalous affair came to an abrupt end as they faced condemnation for their illicit relationship. This image is taken from "Historische Memorabilian des In-und Auslandes" (Historical Souvenirs) by Anton Ziegler, published in 1840. It offers a glimpse into the dramatic downfall of Struensee and his beloved queen. As we gaze upon this historical artifact, we are transported back to that fateful year when power struggles and court intrigues reached their climax. The atmosphere is tense; you can almost feel the weight of judgment hanging heavy in the air. Struensee's face reveals a mix of defiance and resignation as he faces his accusers with unwavering determination. Meanwhile, Queen Caroline Mathilde stands beside him, her expression betraying both fear and loyalty. This photograph serves as a reminder that even those who wield great influence can fall victim to societal norms and political machinations. It invites us to reflect on the complexities of love, power, and betrayal within royal circles. Preserved in private collection by Geiger Peter Johann Nepomuck (1805-80), this rare piece from The Holbarn Archive allows us to delve into an intriguing chapter from European history – one filled with passion, tragedy, and ultimately. . . conviction.
