Franz Krüger
(1797 Großbadegast - 1857 Berlin) attr.;
König Friedrich Wilhelm III. von Preußen
Repräsentatives Brustbildnis im Halbprofil nach rechts, im Hintergrund Ausblick auf das 1821 fertiggestellte Kreuzberg-Denkmal nach Schinkel-Entwurf und die Silhouette Berlins. Friedrich Wilhelm ließ sich hier nach dem Sieg über Napoleon im dunkelblauem Generals-Uniformrock als oberster Kriegsherr porträtieren, worauf sich auch das Kreuzberg-Denkmal im Hintergrund (als Nationaldenkmal für die Befreingskriege) bezieht. Hierbei trägt er die höchsten Auszeichnungen der Heiligen Allianz: den achtstrahligen Bruststern des Schwarzen Adlerordens, das 1813 gestiftete Eiserne Kreuz, den Militär-Maria-Theresien-Orden der Habsburger und den russischen Orden des Heiligen Georg. Krüger und seine Werkstatt haben eine Reihe von Versionen des Porträts ausgeführt, bei der die Kleidung, der Orden und nicht zuletzt der Hintergrund variieren, nach denen auch Druckgrafiken entstanden. Öl/Lwd., doubl.; 78 cm x 65,5 cm. Rahmen.
Vgl./Lit.: Margarethe Cohn: "Franz Krüger. Leben und Werke", Diss. Breslau 1909, Nr. 42-44.
Vergleichs-Porträts befinden sich u.a. im Gleimhaus in Halberstadt (Inv.-Nr. A 196) und im Nationalmuseum in Stockholm. Der dargestellte Uniformrock mit Auszeichnungen hat sich im DHM in Berlin erhalten.
