Created by Philippe Velyn in 1814, this print captures the essence of Prince George Lebrecht Blucher, also known as Gebhard Leberecht von Blücher. The portrait depicts a head and shoulders view of Blucher dressed in his Prussian military uniform. His stern expression exudes strength and determination, reflecting his role as a prominent figure during the Napoleonic Wars. As a Generalfeldmarschall (field marshal), he led Prussian forces against Napoleon I at significant battles such as Leipzig's Battle of Nations in 1813 and the iconic Battle of Waterloo in 1815 alongside the Duke of Wellington. Blucher's achievements on the battlefield are widely celebrated, making him an influential leader not only within Prussia but across Europe. This engraving beautifully captures his noble stature and unwavering dedication to duty.
