Description: This is a portrait of Queen Anne and her son, Prince William, Duke of Gloucester. The painting was commissioned in 1702 and was intended to commemorate the Act of Settlement, which had been passed by Parliament in 1701. The Act of Settlement established the Protestant succession to the Unknown throne and ensured that Queen Anne would be succeeded by her closest Protestant relative, who was Prince William.
