EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the regal presence of Emperor Frederick III of Prussia, also known as Frederick II, during his brief reign from March to June 1888. The image, taken in June of that year, shows Frederick in full military regalia, wearing a helmet adorned with the Prussian eagle and an ornate uniform adorned with numerous medals and orders. The Emperor's stern yet resolute expression conveys a sense of duty and determination, reflecting his commitment to the welfare of his people and the upholding of the Prussian monarchy. Frederick III's reign was tragically short-lived, as he succumbed to laryngeal cancer just a few months after his accession to the throne. His death left a profound impact on German and European history, as he was succeeded by his son, Wilhelm II, who proved to be a controversial and divisive ruler. This photograph is a poignant reminder of Frederick III's legacy as a devoted husband to Victoria, Princess Royal of England, and the father of the future Kaiser Wilhelm II. The image also underscores the historical significance of the relationship between Prussia and England during the late 19th century, as well as the broader geopolitical dynamics of Europe at the time. The photograph was taken by the renowned German photographer Haase, and is a testament to the artistic and historical value of this important moment in European history. The image is a carte-de-visite (CDV) format, a popular photographic format during the 19th century, and is a valuable addition to any collection of historical photographs or European royalty memorabilia.
