Portret van Friedrich Wilhelm III van Pruisen 1797 - 1812

This engraving by Heinrich Sintzenich, created between 1797 and 1812, is a portrait of Friedrich Wilhelm III of Prussia. The small, detailed portrait depicts the King in profile, dressed in a military uniform and looking to the right. The engraving is framed by an ornate oval border with a wreath of leaves at the top and two pearls on either side. The inscription below the portrait identifies the subject and includes his birth and coronation dates. This piece exemplifies the Neoclassical style popular in the late 18th and early 19th centuries.
