Frederik Hendrik (1584-1647), prins van Oranje 1635

This miniature portrait of Frederik Hendrik, Prince of Orange, was painted in 1635 by an anonymous artist. The painting depicts a close-up view of the prince, focusing on his face and elaborate lace collar. The work, housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a prime example of miniature portraiture, a popular genre in the 17th century. These small-scale paintings often served as personal keepsakes or mementos. The intimate size and detailed brushwork contribute to the painting's charm and historical significance.
