"Portrait of the King Frederick V of Bohemia, the Winter King (1596-1632)" is a notable work by the Dutch Golden Age painter Michiel Jansz. van Miereveld. This portrait captures Frederick V, who was the Elector Palatine of the Rhine and briefly the King of Bohemia, earning the moniker "the Winter King" due to his short reign during the Bohemian phase of the Thirty Years' War. Van Miereveld, renowned for his portraiture, was a prominent artist of his time, serving as the official court painter to the House of Orange.

The painting is a testament to the political turmoil and personal tragedy of Frederick V's life. As a historical artifact, it not only reflects the artistic conventions of the Dutch Golden Age but also serves as a visual document of the European political landscape during a period of significant religious and territorial conflict. The portrait is characterized by van Miereveld's meticulous attention to detail, particularly in the rendering of Frederick's regal attire and dignified bearing, which was typical of the portraiture of the era.

Frederick V's brief reign in Bohemia lasted from 1619 to 1620, after which he was defeated at the Battle of White Mountain and lived the rest of his life in exile. This portrait, therefore, holds considerable historical significance as it captures a monarch whose reign was marked by such a pivotal event in European history.

The artwork is an example of van Miereveld's skill in capturing the essence of his sitters through a combination of realism and the subtle conveyance of their social status and personality. The portrait of Frederick V is a valuable piece of cultural heritage, offering insights into the identity and representation of European monarchs in the early 17th century. It remains an important work for scholars studying the period's art, history, and politics, as well as for general audiences interested in the legacy of the Winter King and the artistry of Michiel Jansz. van Miereveld.
