This 18th-century engraving by Pieter Tanjé depicts Frederick the Great, King of Prussia, in an oval frame. Tanjé, a Dutch artist born in 1706 and known for his portraiture, created this work between 1740 and 1761. The print is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. Frederick is shown in profile, his powdered wig and regal attire emphasizing his royal status. The inscription below the image identifies him as "King of Prussia, Elector of Brandenburg, Duke of Silesia."
