This anonymous silhouette portrait, created between 1775 and 1849, depicts Willem V, Prince of Orange-Nassau. The artwork showcases the prince in profile within an oval frame adorned with a decorative border. Below the frame, a ribbon inscription identifies the subject as "Prins Willem de V" and a poem is printed below the image. This silhouette, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, provides a glimpse into the artistic practices of the period, highlighting the popularity of silhouette portraits as a means of capturing likenesses.
