EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the innocence and youth of Augustus III, the King of Poland. Created by Pieter Schenk, a renowned Dutch artist, this print showcases the young monarch in an oval frame, exuding regal charm even at such a tender age. Augustus III was born in 1696 and ruled as King of Poland from 1734 until his death in 1763. This portrait provides a glimpse into his early years, depicting him as a confident and poised boy with an air of authority. The intricate details captured by Schenk bring out the richness of Augustus III's attire, highlighting his royal lineage. As Elector of Saxony before ascending to the Polish throne, Augustus III played a significant role in European politics during his reign. His influence extended beyond Poland's borders, making him an important figure on the continent. Displayed at the Czartoryski Museum in Cracow, Poland today, this engraving serves as a testament to both artistic skill and historical significance. It offers viewers an opportunity to connect with history through art and gain insight into one of Europe's notable rulers.
