This anonymous 1788 print, entitled "Frederik Willem II neemt afscheid van de prinses en haar kinderen", depicts the farewell of Frederik Willem II of Prussia, a King of Prussia, and his family. The scene takes place in a grand hall, likely a palace, where the King is seen shaking hands with a woman. The artwork uses the traditional Dutch technique of etching, which is visible in the lines of the print. It is currently on display at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, and provides a glimpse into the life of a powerful European royal family.
