Abstract

The battle of Sedan was a crucial junction of the Franco-Prussian war of 1870-1871, which completely changed the European international order. The proclamation of the German Empire, after the French defeat, represented an important moment in the rise of Prussia as a hegemonic power in Europe. The Panorama of Sedan, created by Anton von Werner, was intended to highlight the German victory and to create consensus within the new imperial political entity.
