EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases King William III, a prominent figure in English history. Captured in 1793 by Charles Alfred Ashburton, this side view portrait offers a glimpse into the fashion and style of the 17th century monarchy. King William III, also known as Prince William of Orange or William of Orange, was a Dutch prince who became king of England following the Glorious Revolution in 1688. In this monochrome engraving, we see a distinguished man with an air of authority and regality. His profile reveals his strong features and noble bearing. As a devout Protestant, religion played an important role in his life and reign. The location is not specified but it is evident that he represents both British and Dutch influences due to his heritage. This print serves as a reminder of the historical ties between these two nations during that era. King William III's reign was marked by rebellion and revolution, particularly with the overthrowing of James II during the Glorious Revolution. Despite facing challenges throughout his rule, he managed to establish himself as a sovereign ruler over England while maintaining connections to Holland. This remarkable piece from The Print Collector collection allows us to delve into Britain's rich history through its portrayal of one of its most influential monarchs. It stands as an enduring testament to King William III's legacy and contributions to both England and Europe at large.
