This engraving, created by Sophia Wilhelmina Evans, depicts Willem V, Prince of Orange-Nassau. The portrait is rendered in a classic style, with Willem V looking directly at the viewer in a formal pose. He is dressed in a powdered wig and a military uniform, reflecting his high social status. Evans's artwork captures the prince's stern expression and emphasizes his regal demeanor, likely intended to portray Willem V's authority and power. The artwork, created between 1787 and 1816, showcases Evans's meticulous attention to detail and the precision of her engraving techniques. The small scale of the artwork, 164 mm in height and 109 mm in width, suggests it may have been part of a collection of portraits or a personal keepsake.
