EDITORS COMMENTS
This oil painting from 1646 depicts Anne of Austria, the Queen Consort of France, in a moment of prayer alongside her two sons, Louis and Philippe. The artist Jacques Stella beautifully captures the solemnity and devotion as Anne kneels before Saint Benoit, seeking his guidance and protection for her family. Anne's regal presence is enhanced by her elegant crown and royal robe, symbolizing her position as queen. Her sons stand beside her, with young Louis XIV on the right who would later become one of France's most famous kings. Philippe can be seen on the far left, creating a touching family tableau. The painting exudes religious symbolism with an angelic cherub hovering above Anne's head while she prays fervently. This Catholic imagery reflects both Anne's personal faith and the importance of religion in French society during this period. Jacques Stella masterfully portrays each figure with meticulous attention to detail - from their facial expressions to their clothing - bringing them to life within this sacred scene. This fine art print offers viewers a glimpse into the intimate moments shared between mother and sons amidst their royal duties. It serves as a reminder that even those in positions of power find solace in prayer and seek divine intervention for themselves and their loved ones. From The Granger Collection's Carousel Collection curated by Bradley Smith comes this exquisite piece that showcases not only historical significance but also artistic brilliance.
