Aus Koenig Friedrichs Zeit: Prinz Heinrich 1886

Editor: This is "Aus Koenig Friedrichs Zeit: Prinz Heinrich" by Eduard Kretzschmar. It's a print, and the aged paper gives it such a tangible connection to the past. What strikes you most about this piece? Curator: Oh, the way the typography dances with the central portrait is just lovely! It whispers tales of Prussian history, doesn't it? The delicate woodcut technique lends a certain gravitas, a sense of looking into a bygone era, a faded photograph if you will. Editor: That's a great way to put it. I'm now more curious to learn about the Prussian history this portrays. Curator: Exactly! Art has the power to stir curiosity, doesn't it?
