EDITORS COMMENTS
"This evocative print captures the moment of departure for the Prussian troops occupying Luxembourg in 1867. The historical event marked a significant turning point in the Grand Duchy's political landscape. In the foreground, we see a group of Prussian soldiers, their uniforms and equipment neatly arranged, as they prepare to mount their horses. Their faces are a mix of determination and relief, reflecting the culmination of a long occupation. Behind them, the citizens of Luxembourg City watch the scene unfold, their expressions a complex blend of emotions - relief, curiosity, and perhaps a hint of apprehension. The Prussian occupation of Luxembourg began in 1866, following the Austro-Prussian War, when the Grand Duchy was placed under the protection of the Kingdom of Prussia. The people of Luxembourg, who had long sought greater autonomy from both Austria and Prussia, were initially hopeful that the change would bring about greater self-rule. However, the reality of Prussian rule proved to be far from ideal. The Prussians imposed their language and culture on the population, and Luxembourg's economic interests were subordinated to those of the larger German state. The withdrawal of the Prussian troops in 1867 came as a result of diplomatic efforts by European powers, who sought to maintain the balance of power in Europe. The event was celebrated by the people of Luxembourg as a victory for their national aspirations, and marked the beginning of a new era of independence and self-rule for the Grand Duchy." This historical print offers a glimpse into a pivotal moment in Luxembourg's past, providing a window into the complex political landscape of the time and the emotions of those involved. The image is a poignant reminder of the importance of national sovereignty and the resilience of the human spirit in the face of foreign occupation.
