About this piece
back to topA large late 17th century English school oil portrait of William III, painted on an oval canvas and mounted in a finely carved and gilded period frame.
Also known as William of Orange, William III ruled as King of England, Ireland and Scotland from 1689 til 1702.
Using oils, the artist captures the presence of King William III depicted as he is often in portraits wearing regal attire: a lavish wig, lace cravat and and red sash.
Skilfully painted with expressive detail, this antique oil painting’s deep colours are accentuated by a gilded wooden frame. You can just imagine it at the centre of a main wall in a period property, drawing the eye while bringing interest and grandeur to a room.
