Portret van Frederik Willem I van Hessen-Kassel in uniform 1850 - 1875

This anonymous portrait of Frederik Willem I of Hesse-Kassel, taken sometime between 1850 and 1875, shows the prince in full military uniform. The photograph, likely a carte de visite, displays the prince in a formal pose, standing near a decorative pillar, and holding his cap in one hand. The portrait's small size suggests it was intended for personal use, perhaps as a souvenir or a family keepsake. It's a rare glimpse into the life of a lesser-known royal figure.
