Der alte Fritz und seine Soldaten
This is a mid-nineteenth-century Munich picture sheet, published in 1849 by Anton Muttenthaler and Nikolaus Knilling, showing Frederick the Great's soldiers for a general readership of German-speaking popular print buyers. The sheet arranges uniformed infantry and cavalry figures in tidy rows around a central mounted king, with small battle scenes at the corners, and it is a useful reference for designers drawing period military costume, tidy grid layouts, and the crisp black-line hatching of early lithographs.
