EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable Queen Christina of Sweden on horseback. The engraving, created by a French School artist in the 17th century, perfectly captures the regal essence of this influential monarch. Queen Christina, known for her patronage of the arts and her Scandinavian heritage, sits proudly atop her magnificent steed. Her elegant hat adds a touch of sophistication to her portrait as she gazes confidently into the distance. Riding sidesaddle with grace and poise, she embodies strength and power. The equestrian theme highlights Queen Christina's love for horses and sportsmanship. As an avid rider, she embraced horse riding as both a leisure activity and a competitive sport. This image not only portrays her passion for animals but also reflects her status as one of history's most significant female figures.
