The Palace and Park by Phillips, Forbes, Latham, Owen, Scharf, and Shenton

[Born in Mecklenburgh, 1755. Died at Königsberg, 1816. Aged 61.] A brave man and a distinguished general. He fought under Blucher in the battles of Eylau, Friedland, and Tilsit. In 1813, he three times saved Berlin from the advancing French army. He was in the great battle of Leipzig; and in 1815, he repulsed Vandamme and Grouchy on the heights of Wavre. The marvellous rapidity with which he brought up his division to the field of Waterloo won high commendation from the Duke of Wellington. He had great taste in the Fine Arts, and a cultivated mind. He composed some pieces of sacred music, which have been much admired. [By Rauch. Bronze. 1824. In the Pleasure Garden near the Palace at Potsdam.]
