EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Charles XII is crossing the Duna 1701" takes us back to a significant moment in history during the Great Northern War. Created by the talented artist Johann Christoph Brotze, this neoclassical masterpiece showcases his exceptional skill and attention to detail. The scene depicted here is of Charles XII bravely leading his troops across the mighty Duna River (also known as Daugava) in Riga, Germany. The watercolor on paper technique used adds a touch of delicacy and elegance to this fine art image. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported back to that fateful period between 1770-1780s when Livonia witnessed one of its most decisive battles - the Battle of Riga. Charles XII's determination and strategic prowess shine through as he fearlessly crosses the treacherous river with his army. This remarkable piece captures not only an important historical event but also reflects Brotze's deep appreciation for both German and Latvian culture. Preserved within the collection of Latvijas Valsts biblioteka, it serves as a testament to our shared heritage. Let us admire this extraordinary work without forgetting its significance - a symbol of resilience, bravery, and unwavering leadership amidst tumultuous times. May it continue to inspire generations with its timeless beauty and historical importance.
