The "Portrait of William III, Small-quarter-length, in Armour and a Lace Jabot" is a distinguished painting attributed to the Dutch-born English artist William Wissing, also known as Wissmig. William Wissing (1656–1687) was a prominent portrait painter during the late 17th century, renowned for his refined technique and ability to capture the likeness and character of his subjects. This particular portrait is a testament to his skill and the stylistic tendencies of the period.

The subject of the painting, William III (1650–1702), was a significant historical figure who served as the King of England, Scotland, and Ireland from 1689 until his death. He is also known as William of Orange, having been born into the House of Orange-Nassau. His reign was marked by his role in the Glorious Revolution and his efforts to curb the expansion of French power under Louis XIV.

In this portrait, William III is depicted in a small-quarter-length format, a style that focuses on the upper part of the body, providing an intimate yet authoritative representation. He is adorned in armour, symbolizing his military prowess and leadership, which were crucial during his campaigns against France and his involvement in the Nine Years' War. The lace jabot, a decorative ruffle worn around the neck, adds an element of elegance and sophistication, reflecting the fashion of the time.

Wissing's portrayal of William III is characterized by meticulous attention to detail, particularly in the rendering of the armour and lace. The artist's use of light and shadow enhances the three-dimensionality of the figure, giving it a lifelike presence. The background is typically understated, ensuring that the focus remains on the subject's face and attire.

This portrait not only serves as a visual record of William III's appearance but also as a symbol of his status and achievements. It exemplifies the baroque style of portraiture that was prevalent in England during the late 17th century, marked by its emphasis on realism, texture, and the interplay of light and dark. William Wissing's work remains an important part of the artistic heritage of this period, and this portrait is a notable example of his contribution to the art of portraiture.
