Description
A systematic catalogue of history and anecdote pictures with over 1800 illustrations. Hardly any other historical figure was depicted in pictures as often as Frederick the Great. The spectrum ranges from monumental history paintings and prints to book illustrations and postcards. This book is the first attempt to systematically record, catalogue and illustrate the artistic representations of the life and work of Frederick II.
This reference work is aimed equally at historians and art scholars, as well as private collectors of paintings, prints and antiquarian books. A total of about 2000 works are listed (over 1800 of them also with illustrations), including many unknown and forgotten pictures that are probably not familiar even to experts. Supplemented by an extensive bibliography and a complete index of artists, the book is an indispensable aid for all those concerned with the Prussian king and his afterlife in art.
