Summary

Description A famous early photograph of Friedrich Engels, which has been asserted as showing him at age 25 in 1845,[1] at age 20 in 1840,[2] "in his twenties",[3] and at other ages in other years according to other claimants or guessers. One claims that it is Engels between 1857 an 1859 (Jenny Marx wrote to Conrad Schramm 8th. December 1857: „Apropos. Wir haben die Photographien von Freiligrath und Engels. Wenn es Ihnen nicht zu lästig ist, lassen Sie uns doch auch eine von sich machen. Karl hätte so gerne seine besten Freunde im Bilde um sich.“ . Friedrich Leßner wrote about a photography of Friedrich Engels: „In 1859 I wrote a letter to Engels, asking him incidentally for a photograph, which I received together with an excellent letter here,but in spite of much seeking I have not been able to find it.“ (Marx and Engels through the eyes of their contempotraries. Progress Publishers, Moskow 1972, p.119.)[4] This photograph was first published in 1920. Gustav Mayer wrote: „Das dem Werk vorgedruckte Porträt des jungen Engels ist ein Daguerreotyp im Besitz der Familie“. (Friedrich Engels. Schriften der Frühzeit. Julius Springer, Berlin 1920, p. XII.) In 1929 it has been published in the Russian Works of Marx and Engels. Vol V., Moskow 1929. „Engels in the mid-forties“ (Κарл Μаркс Фридрих Энгельс. Собрание фотографий. Моskau 1976, p. 244.)
