This print captures a poignant moment during the Franco-Prussian War of 1870-1871, as Wilhelm I, the king of Prussia and first Emperor of Germany, visits wounded German troops being nursed in the Palace of Versailles. The wood engraving beautifully depicts this historical event, showcasing the compassion and care shown by Wilhelm I towards his soldiers.
In the midst of war and conflict, this image highlights a rare glimpse of humanity and empathy. The sight of royalty taking time to meet with injured soldiers speaks volumes about Wilhelm I's character and leadership during such turbulent times.
