This engraving, created by T. Jefferys between 1747 and 1799, features portraits of Willem IV, Prince of Orange-Nassau, and Anna of Hanover. The couple is depicted in oval frames adorned with elaborate rococo-style ornamentation. Willem IV is shown in profile, holding a staff, while Anna of Hanover is depicted in three-quarter view. The image is a fine example of 18th-century portraiture and provides a glimpse into the royal figures of the time. The engraving is a valuable historical artifact, capturing the likenesses of influential figures of the Dutch Republic and the British Royal family.
