Willem Bentinck van Rhoon, copy after J.E. Liotard (c. 1755-1756). The Dutch aristocrat Bentinck (1704-1774) played an important part in gaining William IV's appointment in all the country's provinces.

After the death of William IV in 1751 Bentinck was forced into the background by the advisors of Princess-Regent Anna.
