ITEM DESCRIPTION:
Portrait of George II (George Augustus), King of Great Britain and Ireland, Duke of Brunswyck-Lüneburg (Hanover) and Archtreasurer and Prince-Elector of the Holy Roman Empire from 11th of June 1727 until his death in 1760.
He was born on the 10th of November 1683 in Herrenhausen Pallace in Hanover (Germany) and died on the 25th of October 1760 in London. He was the last British monarch to have been born outside of Great Britain.
This miniature portrait is a work of German miniaturist active in the 1740s. We believe that the author depicted George II here as Elector of Hanover, wearing the Star and Sash of Garter Order and Cross of (Maltese) St. John Order.
