EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait miniature showcases Frederick Louis, Prince of Wales, in all his regal splendor. Created by the skilled artist Gaetano Manini in 1755, this exquisite piece is a true testament to the artistry of the era. Measuring at just 3.6x3 cm, this small but powerful artwork captures the essence of Frederick Louis with remarkable precision. The prince's head and shoulders are depicted against an oval backdrop, emphasizing his importance as a ruler and member of British royalty. Frederick Louis was born in 1707 and tragically passed away at the young age of 44. This posthumous painting serves as a poignant reminder of his legacy and influence during his time as Prince of Wales. The attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; from the intricate wig adorning Frederick Louis' head to the fine lines that define his features. The use of watercolor on enamel on gold adds an extra layer of richness to this already stunning piece. Now housed within the Ashmolean Museum at the University of Oxford, this portrait miniature continues to captivate viewers with its timeless beauty. It offers us a glimpse into history and allows us to appreciate both Manini's artistic talent and Frederick Louis' significance within British history.
