EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases King Philip II of Spain, surrounded by his three wives, in a moment frozen in time. The image captures the essence of Military and Religious Life during the Middle Ages, as depicted by Paul Lacroix in his renowned work. Published in London around 1880, this lithograph is a testament to the enduring legacy of Spanish royalty. In this regal portrait, King Philip II stands at the center with an air of authority and power. To his left stands Elizabeth of France, her elegance and grace evident even through the black-and-white medium. On his right is Anne of Austria, exuding poise and dignity befitting her noble lineage. Mary of Portugal completes this trio on Philip's far right side. Behind them all stands Don Carlos – their son and heir to the throne – observing with reverence as they kneel together in prayer. The royal family's devotion shines through as they bow their heads piously. The richness of their attire is striking; adorned in fur-trimmed ermine robes and ruff collars that symbolize their elevated status. Each face tells a story – from Philip's stern profile to Elizabeth's serene countenance – capturing both individuality and unity within this powerful dynasty. This print offers us a glimpse into history, inviting us to marvel at the grandeur and complexity that defined European monarchies during this era. It serves as a reminder not only of King Philip II's influence but also highlights how art can immortalize moments for
