Johann Heinrich Christian Franke
(1738 Havelberg - 1792 Berlin) Umkreis
Porträt König Friedrich II. von Preußen als "Friedrich der Große" in einem Lorbeerkranz
Repräsentatives Brustbildnis Friedrich II. im Halbprofil in dunkelblauem Uniformrock mit leuchtend rotem Kragen und Bruststern des Schwarzen Adlerordens, umrahmt von einem hochovalen Lorbeerkranz. Franke schuf mehrere Typen von Porträts Friedrichs, von denen dasjenige des den Hut ziehenden Monarchen überaus häufig kopiert und in der Kunstgeschichte berühmt wurde. Im Unterschied zu jenem 1763/64 im Auftrag des Königs von J. H. C. Franke geschaffenen Gemälde (heute im Besitz der Stiftung Preußische Schlösser und Gärten) zieht er auf dem vorliegenden jedoch nicht den Dreispitz, sondern behält diesen auf dem Kopf. Das vorliegende Bildnis dürfte um 1764-1780 nach dem Siebenjährigen Krieg gemalt worden sein, als aus dem gealterten König Friedrich II. der "Alte Fritz" und "der Große" wurde. Stark beeinflusst wurde Franke hierbei durch Anna Dorothea Therbusch, die den König in fast identischer Haltung malte. Öl/Lwd., doubl.; 81,5 cm x 70,53 cm. Rahmen.
Circle of Johann Heinrich Christian Franke (1738 - 1792). Oil on canvas, relined.
