Prussia Grand Crosses of Iro Cross and Pour le Mérite

[Cartaphilus]

Hello dear friends.

Many years ago when I became interested in the history of the awards, I tried to get pictures of the characters who were decorated with the Grand Cross of the Iron Cross and the Order Pour le Mérite.

Unfortunately, I could never finish the job because I have not been able to find:

- A good photograph (not a drawing or an engraving) of Prince Frederick Karl of Prussia with both Grand Crosses.

- An image of Tsar Alexander II with the Grand Cross of the Pour le Mérite.

- A good sized image Bogislav Friedrich Emanuel von Tauentzien with the Grand Cross of the Iron Cross. I could only find a really tiny in which you could barely see the medal around his neck.

Do any of you have a picture in good condition of these characters with these decorations?


Thank you very much.
