EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Queen Maria Christina of the Two Sicilies, who reigned as the queen consort of Spain during the 19th century. The image captures a moment in history when Queen Maria Christina is seen inspecting the troops with great poise and authority. Painted by Mariano Fortuny in 1865-66, this oil on canvas masterpiece beautifully portrays her regal presence. Mounted on horseback, Queen Maria Christina exudes grace and confidence as she overlooks her cavalry. Her elegant attire perfectly complements her royal status, while her husband King Ferdinand VII stands beside her, emphasizing their strong partnership. The attention to detail in this painting is remarkable; every brushstroke brings life to each soldier and horse present. The artist's skillful use of light and shadow creates a sense of depth within the composition, enhancing its overall impact. This artwork not only celebrates Queen Maria Christina's role as a leader but also pays homage to Spanish history and tradition. Displayed within the Bradley Smith Carousel Collection, this print serves as a reminder of an influential figure who played a significant role in shaping Spain's monarchy during that era. It offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate both fine artistry and historical significance captured within one frame.
