Emil Friedrich Franz Maximilian Graf von Schlitz genannt von Görtz (15 February 1851, Berlin - 9 October 1914, Frankfurt)[1] was a German sculptor, Hessian nobleman, cultural policymaker and confidant of Kaiser Wilhelm II. LifeHis parents were the Grand Ducal diplomat {{ill|Karl von Schlitz|de}} (1822–1885) and Princess Anna of Sayn-Wittgenstein (1827–1902).[1] His studies began at the Academy of Fine Arts, Munich, under the sculptor Joseph Echteler. He assumed the title of "Graf" (Count) upon his father's death. From 1885 to 1901, he was Director of the Weimar Saxon-Grand Ducal Art School. In 1894, he founded a pension and annuity association for German artists. He was a hereditary member of the Upper Chamber of the Estates of the Grand Duchy of Hesse and served as President (a position that had been held by his father) from 1900 to 1914. Prince (later Kaiser) Wilhelm and he had been brought up together, attending the same exclusive private school operated by the famous pedagogue {{ill|Georg Ernst Hinzpeter|de}}, and they became lifelong friends. He was part of what was known as the "Liebenberger Kreis" (circle, or round table), Wilhelm's inner group of advisors and confidants. The Kaiser was a frequent visitor to the Görtz estates. From 1891 to 1910, he went there every summer to go grouse hunting. WorkHis best-known sculptures were those in Group 11 of the Siegesallee (Victory Avenue), consisting of Louis II, Elector of Brandenburg as the centerpiece with Hasso der Rote von Wedel and Friedrich von Lochen, the Landeshauptmann of Altmark in 1346, as the side figures. These statues (along with most of the others in the Siegesallee) were heavily damaged in World War II and are currently displayed in the Spandau Citadel. His statue of Gaspard II de Coligny, in front of the Berliner Schloss, disappeared entirely. References1. ^1 GeneAll: Emil Graf von Schlitz Other sources/Further reading
