Coronation of Wilhelm I in Konigsberg, 18 October 1861 - A Majestic Moment in German History
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures the grandeur and significance of the Coronation of Wilhelm I, King of Prussia, on 18 October 1861. The ceremony took place at the Schlosskirche within the magnificent walls of Konigsberg Castle in Germany. This historic event marked not only Wilhelm I's ascension to power but also commemorated the anniversary of the Battle of Leipzig. The image showcases a beautifully adorned altar with flickering candles casting a warm glow upon it. In this solemn setting, surrounded by fortifications and an air of anticipation, Wilhelm I crowned himself King while being witnessed by his loyal subjects. The photograph exudes a sense of reverence as it portrays Emperor Wilhelm I donned in regal attire and fur-trimmed robes. His majestic presence is complemented by Augusta Marie Luise Katharina, his beloved wife and German Empress Consort. Preserved through time from "Bilder Deutscher Geschichte" this remarkable cigarette card album offers us a glimpse into this significant moment in German history. Although its creator remains unknown, their artistry has immortalized this historical event for generations to come. As we gaze upon this image today, we are reminded not only of the rich heritage that shaped Germany but also how moments like these continue to shape our understanding and appreciation for history itself.
