About the Item
Georg Philipp I RUGENDAS (1666-1742)
Frederick I of Prussia
Red chalk, ink and brown wash on paper
45x42 cm
This drawing has been long considered representative of Charles VI. In reality our drawing represents Frederick 1st of Prussia.
Indeed, the cover of the saddle bears a monogram with FR (for "Friedericus Rex"). In addition, Friedrich wears this mustache quite specific.
The current portrait may be dated after 1706, when all over Europe the images of the new king were scattered.
According to Dr Telesko - whom we warmly thanks for current expertise - this drawing could have been made for a poster bearing the effigy of the new king.
