EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving titled "Frederick Bids Farewell to Katte" we are transported back in time to witness a poignant moment between two friends. The artist, Henry Justice Ford, beautifully captures the emotional intensity of this historical event. Set against a backdrop of grandeur and opulence, Frederick the Great bids farewell to his loyal companion and confidant, Katte. Their bond is palpable as they stand face-to-face, their expressions filled with both sorrow and determination. It is evident that this parting is not by choice but rather forced upon them by circumstances beyond their control. The attention to detail in this print is remarkable; every line etched with precision brings life and depth to the characters' faces. We can almost feel the weight of their emotions through Ford's skillful use of shading and texture. This engraving was originally created as an illustration for "The Book of Princes and Princesses" by Mrs Lang in 1908. Thanks to digital restoration techniques, we can now appreciate its beauty in all its glory. As we gaze upon this powerful image, we cannot help but be moved by the profound sense of loss depicted here. It serves as a reminder that even great leaders like Frederick the Great experienced moments of vulnerability and heartache. "Bridgeman Images" has once again provided us with a window into history through art - allowing us to connect with stories from long ago while appreciating the artistic mastery behind each piece.
