Gerard van Honthorst's 1638 painting, "Prince Frederik Hendrik and His Wife Amalia Van Solms", is a striking portrait of the Dutch Stadholder and his wife. The couple stands against a backdrop of rich drapery and a distant landscape, with Frederik Hendrik in full armor, his sword drawn, and Amalia in a lavish black gown adorned with pearls. The portrait is a testament to the power and elegance of the Dutch Golden Age, and its realistic portrayal of its subjects exemplifies the Caravaggist style that van Honthorst is known for.
