EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the elegance and beauty of Desiree Clary, Queen of Sweden in 1807. Painted by Robert Lefevre, this oil on canvas print showcases her regal presence and timeless charm. Desiree Clary, born in 1781, was not only a queen but also an influential figure during the First Empire era. She was known for her connection to Napoleon Bonaparte as his first girlfriend before he married Josephine de Beauharnais. However, it was through marriage that she gained her royal title when she wedded General Jean-Baptiste Bernadotte, who later became King Charles XIV John of Sweden. In this portrait, Desiree is depicted wearing a delicate veil that adds an air of mystery to her countenance. Her armband symbolizes her status as royalty and complements the intricate details of her attire. The artist's use of neo-classical style highlights both Desiree's gracefulness and the influence of French art during that period. Displayed at the Royal Palace in Drottningholm, Stockholm, this artwork serves as a reminder of Desiree Clary's significant role in Swedish history. It immortalizes a woman who transitioned from being Napoleon's beloved to becoming one half of a powerful ruling couple. This print provides viewers with a glimpse into the life and legacy of Queen Desiree Clary - an extraordinary woman whose story intertwines with love affairs and political power struggles alike.
