EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the historical figure of Philip V, the Duke of Anjou and King of Spain from 1700 to 1746. In this mid-18th century oil painting by Felipe de Silva, we witness a powerful allegorical scene where Philip V and his wife Maria Luisa of Savoy triumphantly slay the dragon representing the Hapsburg past. As the first Bourbon monarch to reign over Spain, Philip V sought to break free from the influence and legacy of his Hapsburg predecessors. The composition exudes regality as Philip stands on the left side, emanating strength and determination. His wife Maria Luisa gracefully joins him in vanquishing their symbolic foe, showcasing their united front against tradition. The artist skillfully captures their noble features and royal attire with meticulous brushstrokes. Set against an exterior backdrop reminiscent of the grandeur of Escorial Palace, this portrait serves as a testament to Philip's pivotal role in shaping Spanish history during his reign. It symbolizes not only his personal triumph but also represents Spain's transformation under Bourbon rule. This remarkable piece from Granger Art on Demand's Carousel Collection allows us to delve into history while appreciating fine artistry at its best. Whether you are an admirer of Spanish royalty or a lover of historical masterpieces, this print is sure to captivate your imagination with its rich symbolism and exquisite execution.
