She was a princess from Mecklenburg-Schwerin, and was later married to Wilhelm, Kronprinz of Germany, the oldest son of Kaiser Wilhelm II. She was very involved in relief efforts in Germany, both before and during WW I. She was an attractive woman.

The frame is gilt and measures 12 1/2″ x 9 1/2.” The photograph measures 6″ x 6 1/4.” A dedication in pencil is on the photograph, advising the cause that the proceeds of the photograph would benefit. It is in wonderful condition, and ready to hang on your wall.

Crown Prince Friedrich Wilhelm was Kaiser Wilhelm I’s son, and Kaiser Wilhelm II’s father. Friedrich Wilhelm became Kaiser Friedrich III. He sat on Germany’s throne for 99 days and was known in Germany as the “99-Day-Kaiser.” Friedrich Wilhelm was a very able military commander during the 1864 Danish-Prussian War, 1866 Austro-Prussian War, and the 1870-1871 Franco-Prussian War. The color postcard depicts him mounted, riding among his troops after the Battle of Worth. It took place on 6 August 1870. If you look to the right, you will see one German soldier holding a French regiment’s colors. During these wars, as well as the earlier Napoleonic Wars, the capture of regimental colors was a big event.

This is a most interesting color postcard. It shows the victory parade held in Berlin following the 1870-1871 Franco-Prussian War. If you look closely, you will see Kaiser Wilhelm I, Otto von Bismarck, and Kronprinz Friedrich Wilhelm (later Kaiser Friedrich III). The postcard has a message written on the obverse. (Many early postcards only had space for the address on the reverse). On the reverse we see that the postcard was mailed in 1900.
