The "Portrait of King William III (1650-1702)" is a distinguished work by Sir Godfrey Kneller, one of the preeminent portrait artists of the late 17th and early 18th centuries. This painting captures the likeness of William III of England, who reigned jointly with his wife, Mary II, from 1689 until her death in 1694, and subsequently as the sole monarch until his own death in 1702. The portrait is emblematic of Kneller's style, characterized by its meticulous attention to detail, rich color palette, and the dignified yet approachable representation of its subject.

Sir Godfrey Kneller, born in Lübeck, Germany, in 1646, became the leading portraitist in England after studying under Ferdinand Bol and Rembrandt in Amsterdam. He moved to England in 1676 and quickly garnered the patronage of the English court, eventually being appointed Principal Painter to the Crown by Charles II. Kneller's reputation was further solidified under the reign of William III and Mary II, for whom he produced numerous portraits.

The portrait of King William III is notable for its regal composition and the subtle yet powerful conveyance of the king's authority and presence. William III is depicted in full regalia, adorned with the robes of state and the insignia of the Order of the Garter, reflecting his status and the grandeur of the monarchy. The background is typically dark and muted, a technique Kneller employed to ensure the viewer's focus remains on the subject's face and attire.

This portrait not only serves as a historical record of one of England's significant monarchs but also exemplifies the baroque style that Kneller mastered. The artist's ability to capture the essence of his subjects made his works highly sought after, and his portraits of William III remain among the most iconic images of the king. Today, Kneller's portraits, including that of King William III, are held in high esteem and can be found in prestigious collections and institutions, continuing to be celebrated for their artistic and historical value.
