Portret van Willem IV, prins van Oranje-Nassau 1747 - 1779

This anonymous engraving, created between 1747 and 1779, depicts Willem Karel Hendrik Friso, Prince of Orange, in a regal pose. The prince is seated in an ornate chair, his right hand resting on a table, while his left hand rests on his knee. He is dressed in formal attire, likely signifying his position as Stadholder, a powerful political office in the Dutch Republic. The background shows a landscape featuring trees and a water feature, perhaps symbolizing the prince's connection to nature and his role as a leader. The artwork's dimensions, 292 mm in height and 206 mm in width, provide a sense of its scale and intimate nature, suitable for personal collection.
