This anonymous engraving, likely created between 1790 and 1849, depicts Willem I, King of the Netherlands, in a formal portrait. The small size and detailed rendering suggest a personal or collectible item, possibly part of a larger series. The inscription identifies Willem I as "Friedrich Wilhelm Erb-Prinz von Oranien", indicating his status as a Prince of Orange. While the artist remains unknown, this small but meticulously crafted artwork serves as a testament to the importance of the figure depicted in the history of the Netherlands.
