EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "A dangerous moment, 1745" we are transported back to a perilous time in history. The vibrant colors of the lithograph bring to life an intense scene that unfolds before our eyes. The focal point of the image is Frederick the Great, King of Prussia, depicted as a brave and resolute leader. With his loyal greyhound by his side, he stands at the edge of a rushing stream, surveying the enemy forces lurking on the other side. The tension in his face is palpable as he contemplates his next move. Surrounded by soldiers and armed with a walking stick for support, Frederick embodies both strength and vulnerability in this dangerous moment. His regal presence adds an air of authority to the scene while also reminding us that even kings must face adversity. The composition skillfully captures every detail - from the intricate bridge spanning over turbulent waters to the hidden figures strategically positioned throughout. Each element contributes to building suspense and heightening our anticipation for what lies ahead. This remarkable artwork not only showcases Richard Knoetel's artistic prowess but also serves as a historical testament to Frederick II's reign during the 18th century. It reminds us that even amidst danger and uncertainty, true leaders rise above challenges with unwavering determination.
