Description
Portrait of Amalia of Solms-Braunfels as widow; allegory on the memory of Frederick Henry, Prince of Orange. The princess is dressed in black with an opened book on her lap. On her right an allegorical figure wearing a helmet and holding a palm branch. A second allegorical figure, Hope, is kneeling in front of the princess holding an anchor and a flowering orange twig. Over them an angel flies pointing at the sky. In the background a monument with the statue of Frederick Henry in armor, being crowned with a laurel wreath by a flying putto. Two corners of the monument are adorned with statues of Justice and Fortitude (two of the four cardinal virtues). In the distance a phoenix arising from the ashes of its predecessor.
