Maria Leszczynska, Queen of France (1712): A Regal Portrait by Jaen Starbus This stunning 18th century oil on canvas painting depicts Maria Karolina Zofia Felicja Leszczynska, the Queen of France, in an elegant and ornate Baroque attire. Painted by the renowned artist Jaen Starbus, also known as Johan Starbus, this portrait captures the grace and sophistication of the Polish princess who became the queen consort of France in 1725. Born in 1683 in Poland, Maria Leszczynska was the eldest daughter of Stanisław Leszczyński, the King of Poland, and his wife, Princess Catherine Opalińska. In this portrait, she is depicted wearing a richly embroidered mantle and cloak, adorned with intricate needlework and ermine fur. The vibrant colors and bold patterns of her dress, as well as the elaborate sleeves, reflect the opulence and grandeur of the Baroque era. The painting, which is currently housed at the Nationalmuseum in Sweden, provides a glimpse into the fashion and style of the time, as well as the heritage and history of both Poland and France. The intricate details of the embroidery and the fine brushstrokes of the oil painting showcase the skill and artistry of Jaen Starbus, who expertly captured the likeness and regal presence of Maria Leszczynska. As the queen consort of France, Maria Leszczynska played an important role in the French court, and this portrait serves as a testament to her status and influence. The painting not only showcases the beauty and elegance of the queen, but also offers a glimpse into the rich history and cultural exchange between Poland and France during the Baroque era.
