EDITORS COMMENTS
Queen Henrietta Maria and her dwarf, Sir Jeffrey Hudson, strike a regal pose in this portrait by Anthony van Dyck. Painted around 1633, the image showcases the queen's elegance and grace as she sits beside her diminutive companion. Dressed in sumptuous velvet robes adorned with intricate embroidery, Queen Henrietta Maria exudes power and sophistication. Her crown rests atop her head, symbolizing her royal status. With an orange tree in the background, a symbol of wealth and prosperity during that time period, the scene is set for opulence. Sir Jeffrey Hudson stands confidently next to the queen, his presence adding an intriguing contrast to the composition. Despite his small stature, he exudes a sense of swagger and self-assuredness. His elaborate hat further adds to his unique character. This portrait not only captures Queen Henrietta Maria's beauty but also highlights her close relationship with Sir Jeffrey Hudson. As one of Charles I's most trusted companions at court, Sir Jeffrey was known for his wit and charm. Lady Juliet de Chair Wentworth Woodhouse commissioned this baroque masterpiece which now resides in a private collection. Its timeless appeal continues to captivate viewers today.
