The German Crown Princess and Princess; Frederick and Victoria, The Princess Royal (daughter of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert).
Against their contemporaries of the German Empire, the couple shared liberal views and believed in a constitutional monarchy for Germany. Against the antisemitism of the time, the couple strongly supported the Jewish population of the German Empire regularly visiting synagogues when violence annd and antisemitism against Jewish people was increasing. Especially in the 1880s when a quarter of a million Germans signed a petition demanding Jewish people be banned from public office. Victoria wrote of her disgust of these leaders and her new nation who “behave so hatefully towards people of a different faith and another race who have become an integral part (and by no means the worst) of our nation!" This along with their other liberal beliefs heavily ostracised them from the conservative German court including Frederick’s parents. In contrast her mother, Queen Victoria, was proud of her daughter and son-in-law's efforts to stop the völkisch campaign and wrote to Frederick to say she was happy that her daughter had married a man like him, who was prepared to stand up for the rights of the Jews. Unfortunately for Frederick he would only become Emperor for 99 days due illness. Their son against their knowledge had been educated by a tutor with conservative views which meant their idea of constitutional monarchy would not come to fruition. The majority of their papers were saved having been sent to Windsor Castle before their son could destroy them. As Dowager she was heavily critical of her son who had purged all institutions of people chosen by Victoria and her late husband. When her son, Wilhelm II now the emperor (and last) wrote in the guestbook of the city of Munich the words "Suprema lex regis voluntas" (The will of the king is the supreme law"), she indignantly wrote to her mother; “The Tsar, an infallible Pope, a Bourbon or our poor Charles I might have pronounced that phrase, but a monarch of the 19th century ... My God, I think (...) Fritz's son and the grandson of my dear father took such a direction and also misunderstood the principles with which it is still possible to govern.”

Kurfürst Friedrich der Weise / Friedrich III. (Sachsen) / Frederick III, Elector of Saxony
ILLUSTRATION Klemens Kühn 
For the Escape Rooms TATORT 1522, an ancestral gallery of important personalities of the Reformation and their opponents was created in the Luther Foundations in Wittenberg. All portraits are based on historical Renaissance paintings. They are portrait-like, but the costumes and Expression should be modern.

Baby, take it off / Checkered thighs on a pretty pawn / This vicious velvet ain't anough / So baby, make a move / My neon eyes are set on you / The devil's language taste of lust.
