EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant historical moment, showcasing the "Alliance of Kings Frederick I. in Prussia, August II the Strong and Frederick IV of Denmark" in 1709. The image showcases an oil on canvas painting that depicts three powerful monarchs coming together for a meeting of great importance. In this allegorical portrayal, we witness King Frederick I of Prussia, known as the Elector of Brandenburg and later crowned as King in Prussia. Alongside him stands August II the Strong, also recognized as Augustus II of Poland and Elector of Saxony. Completing this trio is King Frederick IV of Denmark. The composition exudes grandeur with its baroque style and attention to detail. The artist, Samuel Theodor Gericke, skillfully captures each king's regal presence while incorporating elements from mythology to enhance their symbolic significance. This artwork not only serves as a visual representation but also holds immense historical value. It commemorates an alliance formed during the Great Northern War between these influential figures who sought mutual protection against common adversaries. Preserved by Stiftung Preußische Schlösser und Gärten Berlin-Brandenburg, this remarkable piece offers us a glimpse into German history and highlights the Hohenzollern dynasty's prominence during this era.
