The inscription below provides biographical information about the monarch, highlighting his birth date, coronation, and election. The artwork is a testament to the craftsmanship of Thomassin, reflecting the popular tradition of royal portraiture in the 17th and 18th centuries. A signature in the bottom left corner confirms the artist's name: "S.Thomassin Sculpt. Regis". The artwork is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, Netherlands.
