EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Charity of the little prince" by Carl Rochling depicts a heartwarming scene that transports us to 18th century Prussia. The image showcases Frederick the Great, the King of Prussia, engaging in an act of benevolence towards the less fortunate. In this vibrant lithograph, we witness a young boy from humble origins receiving charitable giving from the royal household. The composition beautifully captures the contrast between poverty and privilege as servants stand nearby, ready to assist in distributing food from a bakery. The little prince's compassionate gesture not only highlights his noble character but also sheds light on societal issues such as poverty and inequality during that era. As part of the Hohenzollern dynasty, known for their influence over Brandenburg and beyond, this act of charity demonstrates their commitment to uplifting those in need. Rochling's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; he masterfully portrays emotions through facial expressions and body language. This artwork serves as a poignant reminder that acts of kindness have no boundaries – even royalty can extend compassion towards those less fortunate. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from our private collection, we are reminded that true nobility lies not only in wealth or status but also in one's ability to make a positive impact on society.
