Places to see in ( Dresden - Germany ) Procession of Princes
The Fürstenzug in Dresden, Germany, is a large mural of a mounted procession of the rulers of Saxony. It was originally painted between 1871 and 1876 to celebrate the 800th anniversary of the Wettin Dynasty, Saxony's ruling family. In order to make the work weatherproof, it was replaced with approximately 23,000 Meissen porcelain tiles between 1904 and 1907. With a length of 102 metres (335 ft), it is known as the largest porcelain artwork in the world.
The mural displays the ancestral portraits of the 35 margraves, electors, dukes and kings of the House of Wettin between 1127 and 1904. The Fürstenzug is located on the outer wall of the Stallhof (Stables Courtyard) of Dresden Castle. By 1589, the outer wall of the recently built Stallhof (Stables Courtyard) of the Dresden Castle was already decorated with a fresco.
For the upcoming 800th anniversary of the House of Wettin in 1889, another stucco version of a large-scale mural was commissioned. It was painted by the artist Wilhelm Walther between 1871 and 1876. Since the picture rapidly deteriorated, it was replaced with about 23,000 Meissen porcelain tiles between 1904 and 1907. The mural depicts the 35 Saxon margraves, electors, dukes and kings from Conrad, Margrave of Meissen, who ruled in the 12th century, to George of Saxony who was king for only two years in the 20th century. The only ones missing are Heinrich I von Eilenburg (c. 1089) and the last king of Saxony, Frederick Augustus III, who ruled from 1904 to 1918. Also shown are 59 scientists, artisans, craftsmen, children and farmers.
The Fürstenzug is 101.9 metres (334 ft) long and 10.5 metres (34 ft) high. Due to 18 windows in the upper part, the tile area comprises only 968 square meters. Each tile measures 20.5 centimetres (8.1 in) by 20.5 centimetres (8.1 in). Hence, approximately 23,000 tiles are placed on the wall.

Procession Of Princes Dresden
This 394-foot mural along the wall in the Royal Mews courtyard depicts a parade of Saxony rulers, some walking, others on horseback. Scratched into stucco by the artist in 1876, the mural was later recast onto porcelain tiles and, incredibly, survived the 1945 bombing of Dresden that destroyed most buildings.

Procession of Princes I Fürstenzug I Dresden
This work is currently the world's largest ceramic wall painting originally made in the sgraffito technique by Wilhelm Walther. The painting was made to commemorate the 800-year history of Wettin dynasty, ruling Saxony in the years 1123-1918.
In 1872-1876, Wilhelm Walther transferred the sgraffito pattern from the cardboard to the wall of the courtyard belonging to the medieval complex of the royal residence in Dresden. Unfortunately, the chosen technique did not prove to be durable. This is why in the years 1906-1907 the decoration was moved to about 25,000 ceramic porcelain tiles. Its dimensions are 101.90 meters length, 10.51 meters height and an area of over 1,000 m².

德勒斯登-德國 Dresden Germany
德意志聯邦共和國(德語:Bundesrepublik Deutschland,簡稱:德國)是一個中歐聯邦議會共和制國家,由16個邦組成,首都與最大城市為柏林。德國領土面積為357,021平方公里,氣候以溫帶氣候為主,人口約8,180萬人,是歐洲聯盟中人口最多的國家。德國亦是歐洲大陸主要的經濟與政治實體之一,按國際匯率計算為世界第4大經濟體[9],以購買力平價計算則為世界第5大經濟體[10],同時還是世界第2大出口國及第3大進口國[11]。德國國民生活水平在世界各國中名列前位,並具備完整的社會保障制度。
德國源自於古代居住在中歐的日耳曼族村落,並於百年間發展成數個遍及歐洲的世襲王國。自第10世紀起,日耳曼地區為神聖羅馬帝國版圖核心[12]。北日耳曼地區於16世紀成為宗教改革的中心,但南部及西部地區仍以信仰羅馬公教為主,兩教派間的衝突引發了三十年戰爭,標誌著羅馬公教與新教在日耳曼社會中維持並立[13]。日耳曼地區在拿破崙戰爭時期為拿破崙所控制。隨著德意志邦聯內泛日耳曼主義興起,在普魯士王國的主導下,令大多數日耳曼邦國於1871年統一為德意志帝國。
德意志帝國於1914年參加了第一次世界大戰,後於1918年國內爆發革命而被迫停戰,帝國解體、成為共和制的威瑪共和國。由於德國在停戰協定—《凡爾賽條約》中深受不公正待遇、經濟崩潰、政局混亂,促使激進派政黨抬頭,最終於1930年代的經濟大恐慌時,由阿道夫·希特勒領導的納粹黨取得政權、建立納粹德國,進入了法西斯專政時期。1939年,德國入侵波蘭,引爆了第二次世界大戰。德國最終於1945年戰敗,國土被分區佔領,後形成了東德及西德兩個國家,一直到1990年才重新統一。
德國為歐洲各共同體於1957年設立時的創始國之一,該組織後於1993年統合於歐洲聯盟之下;德國為申根區的一部份,並於1999年成為歐元區成員國。德國參與聯合國、北大西洋公約組織、八大工業國組織、20國集團、經濟合作與發展組織等國際組織,並任聯合國安全理事會2011年至2012年間的非常任理事國。茨溫格宮所在的位置曾經是有外牆保護的德勒斯登堡壘的一部分,茨溫格這個名稱在德文中意為同心城堡的外區;放置在外牆和主牆之間的大炮。
茨溫格宮 Zwinger
1687年到1689年,薩克森選帝侯強力王奧古斯特二世的修業旅行在返程途中,經過法國和義大利,這時路易十四將他的宮廷遷往凡爾賽宮。奧古斯特回到德勒斯登以後,參加了波蘭國王選舉(1697年),他想要為自己建造同樣壯觀的宮殿,現已不再需要的防禦工事提供了現成的空間,來完成他的計劃。最初的計劃由其宮廷建築師馬特烏斯·丹尼爾·珀佩爾曼在1710年到1728年之間加以實施,涵蓋了目前宮殿建築群和花園的空間,也包括下到易北河邊的園林,森佩爾歌劇院和建於19世紀的廣場。
茨溫格宮是由珀佩爾曼設計,1710年至1728年分階段建造。雕塑由巴爾塔薩·佩慕澤爾完成。茨溫格宮在1719年選帝侯腓特烈·奧古斯特與哈布斯堡皇帝的公主瑪利亞·約瑟法舉行婚禮之際正式揭幕,當時,建築的外殼已經豎立,加上臨時展館,構成這一活動突出的背景。內部直到1728年才完成,行使美術館和圖書館的功能。
森佩爾的畫廊面對歌劇院廣場,右側是森佩爾歌劇院,1900年
1733年奧古斯特去世,因為其他地方需要資金,建造工程停止。宮殿區朝向森佩爾歌劇院廣場和河流。後來規劃改變,規模縮小,在1847年至1855年該地區由於興建美術館(現在被歌劇院與茨溫格宮分開)而被關閉;建築師是歌劇院的設計者戈特弗里德·森佩爾。
茨溫格宮在1945年2月13-15日地毯式的德勒斯登大轟炸中基本被摧毀,在此之前,收藏的藝術品已經被撤退。戰後,德勒斯登市民舉行公民投票,決定重建茨溫格宮,以重建該市的榮耀,而不是將廢墟夷為平地,改建德意志民主共和國當時盛行的社會主義現實主義建築。(資料摘自維基百科).

This HD clip pans along a 102 metre mural called the Procession of Princes, located in Dresden, Germany. Due to being located on a cobbled street full of tourists, the innovative solution to obtain the shot was to photograph the wall in 19 sections, then stitch them together in Photoshop, before importing the panorama into Final Cut. This footage will appear in a planned documentary on Dresden, its art, culture and history.

This wall was not as damaged during World War II. It is comprised of thousands of painted Meissen porcelain mosaic tiles. The tiles are a special type of porcelain made in the Dresden area. The Procession of Princes pictures show several hundred years of rulers in Saxony, a region in Germany that was at one time an independent kingdom. You may be able to hear the tour guide in the background.
