EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite oil on canvas painting depicts a young Isabel II of Spain (1830-1868) as a child, captured in a moment of innocent playfulness. The portrait was painted by Vicente Lopez y Planes Porta (1772-1850), a renowned Spanish painter of the Romantic period. The vertical composition of the image emphasizes the girl's youth and vulnerability, as she playfully holds a fan in one hand and a toy dog in the other. The rich, vibrant colors of the painting bring Isabel's clothing and the ornate background to life, transporting us back in time to the royal courts of 19th century Spain. Isabel II, also known as "Isabel la Católica" or "Isabel the Catholic," was the queen regnant of Spain from 1833 to 1868. She ascended to the throne at the tender age of four, following the death of her mother, Queen Isabel II, and was later deposed in 1868 during the Revolution of 1868. This painting, created during her childhood, offers a glimpse into the life of a monarch before she assumed the weight of the crown. The painting is housed in the Ministry of Economy in Madrid, Spain, a testament to the historical significance of this artwork and the important role it plays in preserving Spain's rich artistic heritage. Vicente Lopez y Planes Porta's masterful use of color and composition in this portrait continues to captivate viewers and offer a window into the past.
