Portret van Wilhelmina van Pruisen 1767

This engraving by Friedrich Reclam, dated 1767, depicts Wilhelmina of Prussia in profile. The artwork, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a fine example of the portrait genre popular in the 18th century. Wilhelmina is framed by an elaborate wreath of flowers and a circular border, emphasizing her status as royalty. Reclam's skillful use of line and shading brings a sense of realism to Wilhelmina's features. The inscription below the portrait identifies her as "Frederique Sophie Wilhelmine, Princesse de Prusse."
