"Portret van Augustus Frederick op 7-jarige leeftijd" (Portrait of Augustus Frederick at the Age of 7) is an etching by Daniel Nikolaus Chodowiecki, created in 1780. The artwork depicts a young Augustus Frederick, a prominent figure in European history, in profile, framed by a circular medallion adorned with laurel leaves and ribbon. This small-scale engraving showcases Chodowiecki's skill in capturing the likeness and youthful charm of his subject. Currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, this intimate portrait provides a glimpse into the life of a young prince during the late 18th century.
