Sir William Beechey's portrait of George IV, painted between 1773 and 1839, depicts the future king as Prince of Wales in a regal pose. Beechey, a prominent British portrait painter of the late 18th and early 19th centuries, captures the prince's imposing presence through his elaborate military uniform and piercing gaze. The work, now in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, exemplifies the traditional style of British portraiture, emphasizing the sitter's status and authority.
