Portrait Henry Frederick Prince of Wales in Armour
His majesty Royal Henry Frederick, Prince of Wales in Armour — British School after Isaac Oliver, c.1840
This finely detailed 19th-century portrait depicts Henry Frederick, Prince of Wales (1594–1612), eldest son of King James I. Shown at sixteen in ceremonial armour with the Order of the Garter, the image commemorates the brilliant Stuart heir whose sudden death changed the course of English history.
Painted in oil on a metal panel, a medium prized in the Victorian era for its durability and clarity, the work reflects both the precision of miniaturist tradition and the grandeur of historicist revivalism. The composition, based on Isaac Oliver’s celebrated likeness, presents the prince in three-quarter bust against a dark ground that heightens the gleam of his armour and the vivid blue of the Garter riband.
Highlights
Shimmering gilt-edged silver armour and crisp lace ruff
Vivid Garter-blue ribbon and crimson-gold badge
Housed in a museum-grade Larson-Juhl gilt frame with UV-protective AR70 glass
Henry Frederick was admired for his intellect, charm, and promise as heir to the throne. His early death at just eighteen shocked the nation. The succession passed to his younger brother, Charles I, whose troubled reign ended in civil war and regicide.
This portrait, created in homage to Oliver around 1840, is both a work of Victorian historicism and a poignant reminder of the Stuart dynasty’s “lost prince.”
Provenance
Private collection
Sold through notable Northern auctioneers (since the 1840s)
Exhibited at the Famous Lord Hill Museum
Significance
An evocative image of a prince who never reigned, this portrait appeals to collectors of royal portraiture, Stuart history, and 19th-century historicist art.
