This engraving, created by Johann Georg Unger between 1735 and 1788, depicts Frederick the Great, King of Prussia. The artwork portrays him in profile, wearing a military uniform and a bicorne hat. It is framed by an oval with a decorative ribbon, and the inscription "Fridericus Magnus" is prominently displayed. Unger’s detailed work captures the ruler's regal presence and strength, reflecting the public perception of Frederick the Great as a powerful and influential figure. This engraving is a fine example of portraiture in the 18th century and offers insights into the artistic styles and cultural trends of the era.
