Ludwig II (sculpture)

Ludwig II by Elisabet Ney
Ludwig II by Elisabet Ney
  • ... that some historians believe Elisabet Ney's full-length statue (pictured) of "Mad King Ludwig" of Bavaria was created as part of a Prussian scheme to unify Germany? Source: "Later historians ... have either speculated or bluntly stated ... that Elisabet Ney ... was also useful as a political agent. ... Ney's job, [they] reason, was somehow to ingratiate herself with Ludwig and influence him to submit Bavaria ... to Hohenzollern domination." (Cutrer, Emily Fourmy (2016). The Art of the Woman: The Life and Work of Elisabet Ney. pp. 64–65.)
