This portrait of Frederik, Prince of the Netherlands, is a black and white photograph created by an unknown artist sometime between 1855 and 1870. The prince is portrayed in civilian clothing, standing in a three-quarter pose against a plain background. The image is framed by a simple oval border and currently resides at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, Netherlands. The small dimensions of this photograph, measuring 85 x 56 millimeters or 98 x 61 millimeters, highlight the intimate nature of the portrait. This artwork is a prime example of the portraiture genre as it captures the likeness of a prominent individual, but it also offers insight into the fashion trends and photographic techniques popular during the mid-19th century in the Netherlands.
