On 28 May 1695, the Elector Friedrich III of Brandenburg who after 1701 called himself King Friedrich I in Prussia, gave the orders to lay the foundation stone of the Berlin Zeughaus, the Arsenal. The first architect was Johann Arnold Nering. He was followed by Martin Grunberg and then, from 1698 to 1699, by Andreas Schluter. The building was given its final exterior form by Jean de Botd in 1706. But it wasn t until 1730 that the construction was finally completed

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur and historical significance of the Berlin Zeughaus, also known as the Arsenal. On a momentous day, May 28th, 1695, Elector Friedrich III of Brandenburg laid the foundation stone for this iconic building that would later become a symbol of Prussian power and prestige. The architectural journey began with Johann Arnold Nering, followed by Martin Grunberg and Andreas Schluter before Jean de Botd gave it its final exterior form in 1706. The image showcases the stunning gold frieze adorning the building's facade, representing an exquisite blend of artistry and history. As one gazes upon this masterpiece from EyeUbiquitous_20094633, they are transported back to an era when Germany was still divided into East and West. Today, this historic landmark stands proudly in Berlin - Germany's vibrant capital city - serving as both a museum and a testament to its rich past. Its completion in 1730 marked not only the end of construction but also solidified its place as an enduring symbol of German architecture. Bennett Dean's expert lens has captured every intricate detail with precision, allowing viewers to appreciate not just the physical beauty but also delve into centuries-old stories etched within these walls. This print is more than just a visual representation; it is a gateway to explore European history through urban design and cultural heritage.
