EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite portrait captures the enchanting beauty and elegance of Elizabeth, Countess of Chesterfield, nee Butler (1640-1665). Daughter of James Butler, 1st Earl of Carrick, Elizabeth was the second wife of Philip Stanhope, 1st Earl of Chesterfield. The portrait, painted by the renowned artist Sir Peter Lely, showcases Elizabeth's striking features – her low-cut dress reveals a generous décolletage, while her ringlets cascade down her shoulders. Her pearl necklace and ring adorned with a ruby add to her regal allure. Elizabeth's marriage to Philip Stanhope, a prominent English statesman and courtier, was a significant event in the political and social circles of the time. The couple's union brought together two influential families, the Stanhopes and the Butlers, and strengthened their power base. Despite her young age, Elizabeth quickly established herself as a patron of the arts and a prominent figure at the court of King Charles II. Her beauty and charm were legendary, and she was often the subject of gossip and admiration. This portrait, executed in the late 1650s, provides a glimpse into the opulence and grandeur of the Restoration era. Elizabeth's refined elegance and timeless beauty continue to captivate viewers, making this portrait a cherished piece of historical art and a testament to the enduring allure of the past.
