EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning equestrian portrait captures Prince Alexander I of the Netherlands, also known as Jonkheer Willem Alexander Frederik Nicolaas, in the prime of his life during the 19th century. The Prince, who served in both the Navy and the Cavalry, is depicted wearing his hunting attire, showcasing his versatility and love for the outdoors. The artist, Willem Daniel de Vignon van Alphen, expertly captures the Prince's regal bearing and confidence as he sits atop his horse, dressed in a brown hunting jacket, white shirt, and black riding breeches. The Prince's boots, with their high, polished leather boots, known as carriage boots, and matching gloves, add to the overall impression of elegance and refinement. The Prince's slouch hat, adorned with a feather, completes his hunting ensemble. The background of the portrait is kept simple, allowing the focus to remain on the Prince and his horse. This portrait is a testament to the rich heritage of the Dutch royalty and the artistic talent of Willem Daniel de Vignon van Alphen. The Prince's military service in both the Navy and the Cavalry is also highlighted, reflecting his role as a significant figure in the Low Countries during the 19th century. This portrait, now a cherished piece of art history, can be found in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
