About the piece

Painted in 1886 by Robert Warthmüller, this evocative oil painting captures a celebrated moment in Prussian history: Frederick the Great's visits to the agrarian countryside. The work masterfully balances the formal presence of the monarch and his retinue against the humble, hardworking life of the peasantry, set beneath a beautifully rendered, expansive sky.
