About the piece
Dating to 1626, this portrait from the British School depicts King William II, known as William Rufus. The work captures the monarch in a classic three-quarter profile, adorned with a magnificent ermine-trimmed crown and a heavily jeweled collar, set against a dark background with a draped green curtain.
