Building the Country After the Seven Years War - King Frederick the Great Examines the Potato Harvest
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a pivotal moment in history as King Frederick the Great of Prussia, known for his military prowess and enlightened rule, takes a break from governing to inspect an abundant potato harvest. The image, based on a painting created in 1886, showcases the monarch's dedication to rebuilding his war-torn country after the Seven Years War. Set against a picturesque countryside backdrop, this scene symbolizes not only agricultural progress but also Frederick's visionary leadership. As he stands amidst fields of golden crops and hardworking farm laborers, it becomes evident that he is not just a king confined to his palace but rather an active participant in shaping Prussia's future. The photograph exudes historical significance with its depiction of rural life during the 18th century. It offers us a glimpse into an era when agriculture played a vital role in nation-building and economic recovery. Through this image, we witness how even powerful monarchs like Frederick recognized the importance of fostering self-sufficiency and improving living conditions for their subjects. Preserved within "Bilder Deutscher Geschichte" this cigarette card album serves as both an educational tool and artistic masterpiece. Its inclusion in such literature highlights how images can convey stories beyond words alone. Overall, this print encapsulates King Frederick's commitment to building a prosperous nation by showcasing his involvement at ground level – quite literally – as he inspects one of Prussia's most valuable resources: its bountiful potato harvest.
