This anonymous, 18th-century, "Wine glass with a portrait of Stadtholder Prince William I (1533-1584)" is a clear glass goblet with an etched portrait of Prince William I on the bowl. The portrait depicts the Prince in a ruff and is framed by a delicate, etched wreath. The stem of the glass is intricately twisted and the foot is circular. The glass is a testament to the artistry of glass engraving and the historical significance of Prince William I who was stadtholder of the Netherlands from 1559 to 1584.

The stipple-engraved portrait of William I is based on a print by Jacob Houbraken (1698-1780).
