EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 17th-century portrait captures the elegance and grace of Isabella of Bourbon, the first wife of King Philip IV of Spain, painted by the renowned Spanish artist Diego Velasquez. Isabella, also known as Elizabeth of France or Isabella of Bourbon, was the daughter of Henry IV of France and Marie de' Medici. She married Philip IV in 1621, and this portrait was likely painted around that time. Isabella's attire reflects the fashion of the Baroque era, with a voluminous hoopskirt and a crinoline made of black fabric, accessorized with a high neck ruff and a lace collar. The dress is adorned with intricate gold embroidery and pearls, adding to the opulence of the painting. The full-length portrait showcases the elegance and sophistication of the Spanish court during this period. Velasquez, a master of the Baroque style, expertly captures the subtle details of Isabella's features, from her expressive eyes to the delicate folds of her clothing. The portrait was likely commissioned to celebrate the royal marriage and to showcase the power and wealth of the Spanish monarchy. This oil on canvas painting is now housed in the National Gallery of Denmark, providing a glimpse into the rich history and heritage of European art. The portrait is a testament to the artistic skill and cultural significance of the Baroque era and serves as a reminder of the enduring influence of Spanish art on European culture.
