EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite oil on canvas painting depicts Augusta Maria of Holstein-Gottorp (1649-1728), a Danish princess who was a member of the powerful Oldenburg dynasty. The portrait was painted between 1651 and 1652 by the renowned German artist, Jürgen Ovens. Augusta Maria is shown in a formal head and shoulders depiction, dressed in the elegant attire of the Baroque era. Her dark hair is styled in intricate braids, and her piercing gaze is fixed on an unseen horizon, reflecting the regal and strong-willed character of this princess. Augusta Maria was born in Denmark, but her family's territories were located in what is now Germany. She spent her formative years in the court of her uncle, Christian IV of Denmark, before marrying Duke Frederick III of Holstein-Gottorp in 1662. This marriage was significant as it united the Danish and Holstein-Gottorp lines, strengthening the political ties between Denmark and the Duchy of Holstein. This portrait of Augusta Maria is now part of the collection of the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm, Sweden. It is a testament to the rich cultural exchange between Denmark, Germany, and Sweden during the seventeenth century. The painting's vibrant colors and intricate details showcase the skill and artistry of Jürgen Ovens, making it a valuable addition to any art gallery or museum exhibition dedicated to the Baroque era or the history of European royalty.
