This anonymous print, *Eerewacht der Koningin* (1840-1841), depicts a mounted soldier, likely a member of the Dutch royal guard, wearing the distinctive uniform of the period. The print, a miniature at just 110 mm high and 90 mm wide, is a fine example of the use of color to represent detail in a historical costume. It is now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, offering a glimpse into the dress and appearance of the Dutch royal guard during the 19th century.
