EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print, we witness a tender and intimate moment between Joseph II, the Holy Roman Emperor, and his wife Isabella of Parma. The scene takes place in their opulent bedroom at Schloss Schonbrunn in Vienna. Joseph II stands by the side of the four-poster bed, his expression filled with both joy and concern as he gazes upon his exhausted wife. Isabella lies on the sumptuous bed, her face still flushed from the exertion of childbirth. She holds their newborn daughter Maria Theresa close to her chest, cradling her protectively. The room is adorned with luxurious furnishings befitting royalty - an intricately carved screen provides privacy while adding elegance to the space. A cot and cradle are positioned nearby, awaiting the arrival of their precious bundle of joy. Maria Christine's skillful use of gouache brings depth and warmth to this touching portrayal. Every detail is meticulously captured - from Joseph II's regal attire to Isabella's delicate features illuminated by soft candlelight. This artwork not only captures a significant historical moment but also serves as a testament to love and devotion within royal families. It invites us into an intimate space where emotions run high amidst grandeur surroundings. As we admire this exquisite print, we cannot help but feel connected to these historical figures who experienced both joys and sorrows just like any other family does throughout time.
