Portret van Willem II, koning der Nederlanden c. 1810s - 1820s

This lithograph, "Portret van Willem II, koning der Nederlanden," by Claudio Linati depicts Willem II, King of the Netherlands, in full military regalia. Created in the 1810s-1820s, it captures the King in a formal portrait setting, leaning against a stone wall. The detail in the uniform and the rendering of the King's stoic expression lend a sense of authority and power to the image. Currently held in the Rijksmuseum, this print exemplifies the style of portraiture popular in the early 19th century.
