APH - Konigin der Herzen

Because there really should be more fanart of Prussia with a historical figure... who isn't Fritz (as much as I love Fritz. You know I love Fritz.)

I also recently finished re-watching Gankutsuou and decided I'd try again to imitate the mind breaking collage-esque art style the series uses. So yes, the patterns here were taken from photos of all kinds of Rococo and Renaissance imagery (or in the case of the flowers, this site here.)

Anyway. Prussia and Luise Auguste Wilhelmine Amalie, otherwise known simply as Queen Louise. During my recent visit to Berlin and Potsdam, I finally got to hear a little more on her tragically short life and the place she had in her people's hearts during one of the more turbulent periods of Prussia's history.

A little more information on her here, and some details on some of the commemorative events that are going on this year. Woo.
