EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enigmatic figure of Frederick the Great, depicted as a Freemason in 1740. The artist remains anonymous, adding an air of mystery to this intriguing piece found in the esteemed collection of the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin. Frederick II, also known as "Old Fritz" was not only renowned for his military prowess and political acumen but also for his affiliation with Freemasonry. This copper engraving beautifully captures him adorned in Masonic regalia, symbolizing his membership within this secretive fraternity. The fine art image transports us back to a time when Brandenburg-Prussia was at its zenith under Frederick's rule. As Elector of Brandenburg and King of Prussia, he played a significant role in shaping German history during the Age of Enlightenment. The graphic arts technique employed here skillfully combines watercolor elements with intricate details etched onto copper plates. This fusion creates a visually stunning representation that highlights both classicism and genre-specific characteristics prevalent during that era. As we gaze upon this remarkable portrayal, we are reminded of Frederick's intellectual curiosity and dedication to enlightenment ideals. His involvement with Freemasonry further emphasizes his commitment to fostering brotherhood and promoting philosophical discourse among like-minded individuals. This print serves as a testament to Frederick the Great's multifaceted legacy – one that encompasses not only military achievements but also cultural contributions through his association with freemasonry.
