EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur of the Furstenzug, also known as the Procession of the Dukes, in Dresden, Germany. The mural stretches along Auguststrasse and is composed of an astonishing 25,000 Meissen tiles. Depicting a lineage of 35 noblemen from Konrad the Great to Friedrich August III, Saxony's last king, this masterpiece offers a glimpse into centuries of German history. Originally painted by Wilhelm Walter between 1870 and 1876, time took its toll on the stucco rendering. By 1906-07, it became necessary to replace it with these exquisite tiles that now adorn this architectural marvel. Each tile tells a story and showcases remarkable craftsmanship.

Its presence adds charm and character to Dresden's urban landscape while offering locals and tourists alike an opportunity to immerse themselves in artistry at its finest. Whether you are an art enthusiast or simply appreciate cultural landmarks like this one, this print invites you on a visual journey through time – capturing both past glory and present admiration for all
