Portret van Friedrich Wilhelm IV als kroonprins van Pruisen 1816

This 1816 engraving by Johann Friedrich Bolt is a portrait of Friedrich Wilhelm IV, the future King of Prussia, in his youth. The artwork depicts him as a young man, wearing a military uniform, in a bust-length portrait. It was created using the etching technique. This engraving would have been a popular way to portray royalty during the early 19th century, and its small size and oval format suggest that it was likely intended for personal use, perhaps as part of a collection of engravings. The image is now part of the collection of the Rijksmuseum.
