The names of the sitters are: *Upper row (from left to right): 1. Wilhelm Heinrich (William II), Prince of Orange (1626-1650). It is probably a work of Gerard ter Borch the Younger (1617-1681). 2.

Kurfuerst Friedrich IV von der Pfalz (Frederick IV, Elector Palatine of the Rhein; 1574-1610). 5. Currently still unknown to us royalty. 6.

Princess Luise Juliana, Electorina Palatine of the Rhine (nee Princess of Orange-Nassau; 1576-1644). All eight portraits are without exception works of 1st-class Dutch or German portrait painters (all certainly court artists) working either in Germany, in the Netherlands or in England.
