EDITORS COMMENTS
Per Hillestrom's Lecture at Drottningholm, 1779, is a captivating group portrait that offers a glimpse into the opulence and grandeur of the 18th century European court. The painting depicts a lecture scene taking place inside the magnificent Drottningholm Castle in Sweden. The cast of characters includes Anhalt Zerbst Princess Sophie, later Catherine II of Russia, and her husband, Gustav III of Sweden, King Gustav III. The empress is dressed in a vibrant red robe, adorned with intricate gold embroidery, while the king dons a richly textured blue coat and white breeches. Surrounding them are courtiers, dressed in the latest fashion, some with feathered hats and others with elaborate waistcoats. The interior of the room is equally impressive, with ornate furniture, a grand chandelier, and intricate interior decoration. The walls are adorned with rich colors and patterns, creating a sense of warmth and luxury. In the foreground, a courtier holds a bird on a leash, adding a touch of whimsy to the scene. The painting is a prime example of the Rococo artistic movement, with its focus on intricate details, vibrant colors, and ornate furnishings. The concept of the painting is not only a depiction of the court of law but also a reflection of the power and wealth of the European monarchy during this period. Overall, Hillestrom's Lecture at Drottningholm, 1779, is a stunning work of art that transports us back in time to the opulent world of 18th-century European royalty.
