EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a lavish dinner table at Sanssouci, the former summer palace of Frederick the Great in Potsdam, Germany. Painted by Adolph Friedrich Erdmann von Menzel in 1850, this oil on canvas artwork showcases an extraordinary gathering of intellectuals and aristocrats. The scene depicts a round dining table adorned with an exquisite chandelier hanging from above. The rococo style of the room adds to its opulence and grandeur. Seated around the table are prominent figures such as Voltaire, Fredrik II, d'Argens, La Mettrie, James Keith, George Keth, Friedrich Rudolf von Rothenburg, Christoph Ludwig von Stille and Francesco Algarotti. This assembly represents a meeting of minds - an intelligentsia engaging in stimulating conversations. The painting reflects both the Baroque era's love for intricate sculptures and ornate decorations as well as the Enlightenment movement that emphasized reason and intellectual pursuits. It is evident that this gathering was not just about indulging in fine cuisine but also about exchanging ideas and fostering intellectual growth. Menzel's attention to detail brings each character to life; their expressions reveal their intelligence and depth. This image serves as a window into German history during this period - showcasing not only the nobility but also highlighting important figures who contributed significantly to academia.
