About the piece
Painted in 1795 by Wilhelm Böttner, this portrait depicts Wilhelm IX, Landgrave of Hesse-Kassel, in full military regalia. The artist masterfully captures the textures of the rich navy uniform, silver epaulettes, and various chivalric orders, set against a softly rendered outdoor background of trees and distant military camps.
