Description
In the center a lovely map of Prussia and present-day Poland. Provenance : Bibliothèque des ducs de Luynes, Château de Dampierre. The library of the Dukes of Luynes from Dampierre Castle, one of the largest private libraries of France.
This illustrious family was closely linked to the history of France since the seventeenth century. The book has the coats of arms of Luynes family gilted on its spine.
This important library was founded by Marie de Rohan Montbazon (1600-1679), immortalized by Alexandre Dumas in his trilogy of the Musketeers and favorite wife of King Louis XIII..
Frederick II (24 January 1712 – 17 August 1786) was King in Prussia (1740–1786) of the Hohenzollern dynasty. He is best known for his brilliance in military campaigning and organization of Prussian armies.
Upon ascending to the Prussian throne, he attacked Austria and claimed Silesia during the Silesian Wars, winning military acclaim for himself and Prussia.
Near the end of his life, Frederick physically connected most of his realm by conquering Polish territories in the First Partition of Poland.
