EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases William I, King of Prussia (1830-1916), in the Allgemeine Moden-Zeitung. The engraving, created by the German School in Leipzig in 1872, exudes regality and power. William I, also known as Wilhelm I, was a prominent figure from the House of Hohenzollern. He reigned as the King of Prussia from January 1861 until his passing in March 1888. Additionally, he held the esteemed title of being Germany's first Emperor after its unification on January 18th, 1871. In this portrait-like image, William stands tall with an air of authority and confidence. His majestic crown rests upon his head while his distinguished beard and moustache add to his commanding presence. Adorned in an ermine-lined fur cape and robe embellished with medals representing his decorated achievements, he embodies both strength and elegance. The attention to detail is remarkable; every aspect captures the essence of royalty. This historical piece not only commemorates William I but also symbolizes a pivotal era for Germany under his leadership alongside Minister President Otto von Bismarck. As we gaze upon this print today, it serves as a reminder of a significant chapter in German history when Prussia achieved unification and established itself as the formidable German Empire under William's guidance.
