The Royal Marriage at Berlin: The Marble Palace, Potsdam, the future residence of Prince Frederick William of Prussia and his bride, 1881. View, '...drawn by our own Artist, of the Marble Palace at Potsdam, which has been assigned to Prince Frederick William and his intended wife [Princess Augusta Victoria of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Augustenburg] for their future residence...We may add a few particulars concerning the Marble Palace, at Potsdam, as it is to be the future home of the young couple. It is in the Dutch style, of white marble and red brick; and contains some fine bronzes, and other objects, of the time of Louis XVI. It was built at the end of the last century by a nephew of Frederick the Great, who afterwards became Frederick William II., King of Prussia. The fragments of Corinthian columns were got up to represent the ruins of a classic temple according to the style of the time...This palace is at present undergoing a thorough renovation, and till it is all ready the happy pair will occupy a suite of rooms in the Royal Schloss at Potsdam'. From "Illustrated London News", 1881.
