This 1814 coat of arms, created by an anonymous artist, depicts the heraldic emblem of Willem Frederik, Prince of Orange, as the sovereign ruler of the Netherlands. Two crowned lions support the shield, which features the royal coat of arms of the House of Orange-Nassau, including a checkerboard pattern and lions. The shield is surrounded by a banner and a laurel wreath, symbolizing the power and glory of the sovereign. The artwork, now in the Rijksmuseum, provides a glimpse into the visual language of power and lineage during the early 19th century.
