Summary

Description
English: Colorized engraving of Frederick II of Prussia in Waffenrock (dress tunic). Original is an illustration by an anonymous artist from John S. C. Abbott's 1873 History of Frederick the Second, Called Frederick the Great
Deutsch: Das klorierte Bild zeigt den König nicht ganzfigurig. Der König ist von vorn dargestellt, der Kopf leicht gedreht im Halbprofil. Die mit einem Handschuh bekleidete linke Hand in die Seite gestützt, die Rechte auf den Krückstock. Der König trägt den schlichten „Interimsrock“ des 1. Bataillons der Leibgarde seines Garde-Regiments (IR 15 der Stammliste von 1806) mit umgelegter Offiziersschärpe, schwarzer Halsbinde, Generalshut, Degen mit Portepee, dazu auf der linken Seite aufgenäht den gestickten Bruststern des Schwarzen Adlerordens (Ordenssterne aus Metall erst im 19. Jh.). Auf der rechten Schulter ist das geflochtene Achselband zu erkennen. Zur Farbgebung: Der Rock dunkelblau („Preußischblau“) mit rotem Kragen und an den Ärmelenden ebensolchen roten Aufschlägen, die Knöpfe aus Metall sind silbern, ebenso die Offiziersschärpe und der Ordensstern. Der Hut - ein Dreispitz - schwarz mit weißem Federbesatz - der sog. „Plumage“ -, den die Generale trugen.
