William of Nassau, Prince of Orange is a 1601 ink by Christoffel van Sichem I, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This is a black-and-white drawing of a man dressed like a soldier. He’s wearing armor over a fancy robe, with a helmet tucked under his arm. One hand holds a glove, and he sits on a carved chair with a scalloped backrest. The text at the bottom calls him "Prince of Orange" and names the artist, Sichem. The lines are all made by scratching into metal—this isn’t paint. Want to know more? Try looking up engraving.
