Provenance: The Estate of the late Dame Miriam Rothschild. Silesia in the South West part of Poland, bordering Saxony to one side and the Austrian Czech territories to the other, was first incorporated into the Polish State in the 10th century, but later broke into independent duchies, coming under increasing German influence. It came under the rule of the Crown of Bohemia, which passed to Austria in 1526. Most of Silesia was conquered by Prussia in 1742. The production of this fine games board dates to the period of Austrian dominance, and it is speculatively suggested that it would have been housed at the Promnitz palace in Zary. Promnitz of Silesia was granted a barony in 1559, the head of the family being advanced to a Count in June 1652. It is worth noting though that coronets of the nobility in both Germany and Austria were not rank specific and indicated only that the arms were those of a noble. The arms on the games box therefore might not post date the advancement to the status of Count. Please note: this is damascened steel and mulberry, not walnut as catalogued.
