Ostuf Posted April 21, 2018 Author Posted April 21, 2018 Bayern, here it is a zoomed bottom part of the photo ixhs: do you mean Edwin Freiherr von Manteuffel ? I don't think so
Bayern Posted April 22, 2018 Posted April 22, 2018 Hello , I can read : FOTOGRAFIE v F KNAUS IN TREB .. and no more
Bayern Posted April 22, 2018 Posted April 22, 2018 Hello again , I completed the caption . TREB is TREBIC a Moravian city in today Czech Republic . and the photograph is Frantisek Knaus .who was a pioneer of the photo art and lived between 1822 and 1872 . So the portrait is of before 1872 , and is a German General the portrayed but how and when ? perhaps during the Austro Prussian War of the year 1866 . if so ,the Prussian General must had be part of the Army that defeated Austria at Sadowa.
Ostuf Posted April 22, 2018 Author Posted April 22, 2018 Good job Bayern! Thank you! I'll try to make a list of the generals involved in the campaign
