Large relief medallion with a portrait of King Frederick II of Prussia Brass, embossed. Oval shape with a stately depiction as a knee ornament, likely based on a painting by Antoine Pesne or a copperplate engraving derived from it: the king in uniform with an ermine cloak draped over his shoulders and medals worn as a breast star or on a sash, holding a commander’s staff in his right hand and pointing toward a fortified city in the background; in the foreground of the landscape, his discarded tricorn hat rests atop his gloves. The profiled edge is ornamentally decorated, with a rocaille motif above and below. 61 cm x 53 cm. A large oval German—probably Berlin or Potsdam—brass relief depicting a portrait of King Frederick II of Prussia. German. Brandenburg/Prussia. Probably Berlin or Potsdam. Circa 1740–1760.
