Henrietta Maria, Queen of Charles I.; Obit 1669
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating 17th century portrait depicting Henrietta Maria, the Queen Consort of King Charles I of England and Scotland. The engraving, created by an unknown artist, is taken from Samuel Woodburn's "Portraits of characters illustrious in British History from the beginning of the reign of Henry the Eighth to the end of the reign of James the Second," published in London in 1815. The portrait showcases Henrietta Maria, a French princess born in Paris in 1609, dressed in elegant attire, reflecting the fashion of the time. Her dark, voluminous gown is adorned with intricate lace and embroidery, while a lace veil covers her chestnut-colored hair. Henrietta Maria's regal appearance is further emphasized by her pearl necklace and earrings, as well as the scepter she holds in her right hand. Henrietta Maria was known for her strong Catholic faith and her unwavering support for her husband, King Charles I, during his struggles with the English Parliament. She was also a defender of the faith and played a significant role in the English Civil War. After the execution of her husband in 1649, Henrietta Maria lived in exile in France, where she died in 1669 at the age of 59. This engraving serves as a poignant reminder of the life and legacy of Henrietta Maria, a woman who left an indelible mark on British history. The black and white image, with its intricate details and historical significance, is a valuable addition to any collection of portraits or artifacts from the 17th century. The portrait is attributed to the renowned Flemish painter Anthony van Dyck, although there is no definitive proof of his involvement. Van Dyck was a leading portrait painter of the time, and his influence on the portrait style of the period is evident in this image. Regardless of the artist, the "Henrietta Maria, Queen of Charles I.; Obit 1669" portrait remains a captivating and intriguing glimpse into the past.
