Portrait bust of Frederick William I of Brandenburg (1620-1688), Elector of Brandenburg and Duke of Prussia. He is wearing a cloak. He was a member of the House of Hohenzollern and popularly known as "the Great Elector" (Der Große Kurfürst) for his military and political prowess. He was a staunch supporter of Calvinism. He saw the importance of trade and promoted it strongly. His clever internal reforms empowered Prussia and laid the foundations for transforming the duchy into a kingdom. This was eventually achieved by his successor, Frederick I of Prussia. Etching and engraving by Pieter II de Jode (1606-1674), signed lower right in print. Made around 1660.

Portretbuste van Frederik Willem I van Brandenburg (1620-1688), keurvorst van Brandenburg en hertog van Pruisen. Hij draagt een mantel. Hij was een lid van het Huis Hohenzollern en was in de volksmond gekend als "de Grote Keurvorst" (Der Große Kurfürst) vanwege zijn militaire en politieke dapperheid. Hij was een fervent aanhanger van het calvinisme. Hij zag het belang van handel en promootte het hevig. Zijn slimme binnenlandse hervormingen gaven Pruisen een sterke positie en legden de fundamenten voor het omvormen van het hertogdom naar een koninkrijk. Dit werd uiteindelijk bereikt door zijn opvolger, Frederik I van Pruisen.
Ets en gravure door Pieter II de Jode (1606-1674) , gesigneerd rechtsonder in druk. Vervaardigd ca. 1660.
