Polish rulers in the "Prince's Procession" in Dresden

On the wall of the Langer Gang building in Dresden is a representation of the 'Prince's retinue' made of porcelain elements. The artwork was created between 1872 and 1876, originally made in sgrafitto and later replaced by ceramic elements produced at the Meissen manufactory. The ornament depicts margraves, counts, dukes and kings of Saxony from the 800-year history of the Wettin dynasty, including the Kings of Poland: Augustus II the Strong, Augustus III of Saxony and Frederick Augustus I, Duke of Warsaw. The lower part of the work features 35 coats of arms, including those of Poland and Lithuania.
