"Karl XII" is a notable portrait by the Swedish painter David von Krafft, a prominent artist of the late 17th and early 18th centuries. This artwork is among the most recognized depictions of Charles XII of Sweden, a key historical figure known for his role in the Great Northern War and his efforts to maintain Swedish dominance in Northern Europe. Painted in the early 18th century, this portrait captures the young warrior king in a regal yet martial pose, reflecting both his royal status and his reputation as a formidable military leader.

David von Krafft, a pupil and nephew of the famous court painter David Klöcker Ehrenstrahl, became one of the most sought-after portraitists in Sweden, serving as a court painter himself. His works are celebrated for their meticulous detail, vibrant colors, and the ability to capture the essence of his subjects. The portrait of Karl XII is no exception, showcasing von Krafft's skill in portraying the king's determined and stoic character, which has captivated viewers for centuries.

The painting not only serves as a historical document, offering insight into the fashion and aesthetics of the Swedish royal court during the early 1700s but also as a testament to the enduring legacy of Charles XII. Often referred to as "Carolus Rex" in Latin, his military campaigns and the nationalistic fervor they inspired have left a lasting mark on Swedish culture and history.

Today, "Karl XII" by David von Krafft holds a place of honor in Sweden's national heritage, displayed in one of the country's prestigious museums or historical collections. It continues to be a subject of study for art historians and enthusiasts alike, admired for both its artistic merit and its historical significance.
