Ludwig IV (*1837, +1892), was the Grand Duke of Hesse and by Rhine from 1877 until his death in 1892.
He is commemorated with a statue in front of the Palais in Bingen am Rhein.
The German Wikipedia features some interesting historic pictures of Ludwig IV.

The rising sun was still low and cast a long shadow.
The shadow was eliminated by taking an off-center picture for the nadir (the downward-facing shot) to cover the shadowed area and then optimizing it using viewpoint correction in PTGui.
Eight pictures were used for this panorama (6 + N + Z). See the blog entry Statue von Ludwig IV.
