EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the beauty and elegance of Lucy Hay, Countess of Carlisle, during the mid-17th century. Painted by Adriaen Hanneman, a Dutch artist known for his skill in capturing the essence of his subjects, this oil on canvas print showcases Lucy Hay's grace and sophistication. Lucy Hay was not only admired for her physical beauty but also revered for her intelligence and wit. As an English courtier involved in numerous political intrigues during the tumultuous English Civil War, she played a significant role in shaping history. Born into nobility as the second daughter of Henry, Earl of Northumberland, and Lady Dorothy Devereux, Lucy possessed both charm and influence. In this half-length portrait set against a lush green landscape with a serene water fountain nearby, Lucy is depicted wearing an exquisite silk dress adorned with pearls. Her decollete neckline accentuates her aristocratic status while delicate earrings add to her allure. The artist has masterfully captured every detail from her flowing hair to her radiant complexion. Now housed at the Minneapolis Institute of Arts in Minnesota, USA, this painting serves as a timeless reminder of Lucy Hay's place within British society and aristocracy. It stands as a testament to both her physical beauty and inner strength that made her such an influential figure during one of England's most turbulent periods.
