Le prince après sa mort

ANONYME

Le prince après sa mort

Rome circa.1825, 10.5x14cm, une feuille sous marie-louise.


The prince after his death: an original copy on a copy, probably of Prince Henry of Prussia.
Post-mortem portrait of Heinrich Friedrich Karl, Prince of Prussia, died in Rome in November 1846 in his apartment on the first floor of a house in via del Corso. Son of King William II of Prussia, born in December 1781, he was an army general at the time of the Quadruple Alliance against Napoleon, and lived in Berlin after the peace of 1814. From fragile health he obtained from his brother King Frederick -Guillaume III to go to Italy to recover, and settled in Rome in 1819 before falling seriously ill. Henry of Prussia was nevertheless seen in society during the first years of his stay, where he supported Italian artists, before definitively shutting himself up in his apartments. He died a couple of decades later.
The drawing reveals in simple and direct lines the features of the recumbent, with a bald head and a beard. The portrait was originally placed in an album amicorum , with another representation of the prince (during his lifetime), among drawings of the Prussian aristocracy while in Italy as the prince until his death.
