This striking portrait captures Henrietta Maria (1609-1669), Queen consort of England, Scotland, and Ireland as the wife of King Charles I.

The inclusion of the crown beside her alludes to her royal position, while the soft lighting and rich colour palette enhance the overall sense of grandeur.

Artist Biography
Anthony van Dyck
His time in Genoa and, later, as court painter to Charles I of England, cemented his legacy. Van Dyck didn't just record likenesses; he elevated his subjects, imbuing them with an aristocratic grace that defined the Caroline era. He established a visual language of power and refinement, influencing portraiture for centuries. Consider his iconic depictions of Charles I, such as "Charles I at the Hunt", which capture the king's regal bearing and hint at the complexities of his reign.
Beyond portraiture, Van Dyck was a master of religious and mythological scenes, showcasing his versatility and technical skill. His impact resonates even today, not only in the art world but also in fashion and popular culture, where his aesthetic continues to inspire. He died in London, leaving behind a glittering oeuvre that continues to captivate and inspire.
