This is all rather unexpected since the Fort is more closely associated with the French and Indian War. <br /><br />I'm told that the previous curator was given a $3 million budget to buy SYW things in order to expand the museum and attract a wider audience to the fort. That would be why Frederick's portrait is there.Der Alte Fritzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01578422757511400566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6504742686650223041.post-13273826823626990392013-07-27T11:13:16.334-05:002013-07-27T11:13:16.334-05:00No, I meant at Fort Ligonier.

What's the context of his portrait there? Just a 7YW reference?Lee F.
