Background
Frederick Augustus served in the Royal Saxon Army before becoming king, and later was promoted to Generalfeldmarschall. Though well-loved by his subjects, he voluntarily abdicated as king on 13 November 1918, after the defeat of the German Empire in World War I. Hugo ERFURTH (1874-1948) was a German photographer known for his portraits of celebrities and cultural figures of the early twentieth century.
