EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures a pivotal moment in history - the coronation of Wilhelm III and Mary Stuart in 1689. Painted by the talented artist Charles Rochussen, this masterpiece is now housed in the prestigious Amsterdam Museum.
The image depicts the newly crowned King and Queen of England, William III and Mary II, as they ascend to their thrones amidst a backdrop of opulent regalia and adoring onlookers. The painting exudes grandeur and majesty, capturing the essence of this significant event in European history.
Wilhelm III, also known as William of Orange, was a key figure in the Glorious Revolution which saw him overthrow his Catholic father-in-law James II to take the English throne alongside his wife Mary Stuart. Their joint reign marked a turning point for England towards constitutional monarchy and laid the foundation for modern democracy.
Mary Stuart, daughter of James II, was beloved by her subjects for her grace and intelligence. Together with Wilhelm III, she ruled England during a tumultuous period with wisdom and strength.
Rochussen's attention to detail and mastery of light bring this historical scene to life, making it feel as though we are witnessing this momentous occasion firsthand. This print is not just an artwork but a window into an important chapter in European history that continues to resonate today.
