This terracotta bust of Maurice, Prince of Orange, was created by Dutch sculptor Jan Claudius de Cock sometime between 1692 and 1697. The bust depicts Maurice in a detailed, realistic manner, capturing his features and attire with precision. The Prince is shown wearing a ruff, armor, and a sash with a medallion, highlighting his status and power. This bust, characteristic of De Cock’s work, is a striking example of Baroque sculpture and offers a glimpse into the visual culture of the late 17th century.
