Monument at Berlin to the Prussian Soldiers Killed in 1848 and 1849, (1850). 'The monument consists of a simple pillar, surmounted by a large Prussian eagle; it is surrounded by a wall or inclosure, on the inside face of which are inscribed the names of the officers and soldiers who fell in the various conflicts. The following is the inscription to be placed upon the Monument: "National Monument to the memory of the Brothers and Companions in Arms who fell, true to their duty, in the cause of Law and Order and for their King and Fatherland, on the 18th and 19th of March, 1848, in Berlin, and afterwards, in the conflicts that took place in Posen, Schleswig-Holstein, Mayence Frankfort- on-Maine, Erfurt, Breslau, Dresden, Iserlohn, Elberfed, Dusseldorf, the Pfalz, and Baden. To the living generation an illustrious example; to posterity, a model for imitation".' From "Illustrated London News", 1850.
