Abstract:
First published in 1702, this text celebrates the coronation of Friedrich III, elector Brandenburg, as Friedrich I, king of Prussia in 1701. That edition announced the series of engravings first published in this edition, a decade later. The 24 plates, some of them pasted together to form longer panoramas, were sketched by the court painter Johann Friedrich Wentzel and engraved by Johann Georg Wolffgang.

Imperfect: some pages mutilated with loss of text. and The type, paper, and wooden shingle binding appear to be American, and the London imprint would therefore seem to be fictitious (the printer’s name and address, and the date 1696, occur in the preliminary matter).
