Tekla, Duchess of Friedland, wife of the ambitious, enigmatic Albertus Duke Fridladiae Graf v Wallenstein (1583-1634), the most successful and charismatic general in the Thirty Years War. He had lost the support of the Emperor in 1634 and had withdrawn to Ever in Bohemia, where he was assassinated by Irish and Scottish mercenaries formerly in his service. This large copper charger is embossed, chased, engraved and hand painted (oil) with the portrait of Tekla. Dimension : 16 7/8 inches ( 43 cm) in diameter, excellent condition. We believe this lovely piece is of German origin and dates back to the second half of 19 th century. This is one of a pair, please see other charger of Albertus, Duke of Friedland. Wisconsin residents, please add 5.1% sales tax or your WI resale number.
