EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures King Christian IV of Denmark (1577-1648) in regal splendor between approximately 1643 and 1648. The painting, created by the renowned artist Karel van Mander III (1614-1675), showcases the monarch in a full-length depiction, dressed in the finest apparel and armor of the Dutch Golden Age. The King is seen wearing a breastplate and a helmet adorned with intricate designs, along with a curtain or drape draped over his shoulders, adding an air of grandeur to his appearance. The King's attire is a testament to the opulence of the era, with a richly colored and textured fabric for his clothing, and high-quality leather for his boots, which feature the distinctive 'carriage boot' or 'duke boot' design. The King's chest plate and gauntlets are also intricately detailed, reflecting the advanced metalworking techniques of the time. King Christian IV ruled over the House of Oldenburg, which also included the Duchy of Holstein and the Kingdoms of Denmark and Norway. His reign marked a significant period in Danish history, and this portrait serves as a powerful reminder of his heritage and the artistic achievements of the Dutch Golden Age. This painting is now on display at the Nationalmuseum in Sweden, where it continues to captivate visitors with its stunning depiction of a monarch in all his glory. The intricate details of the King's clothing, armor, and accessories provide a glimpse into the rich history and culture of the Low Countries during this period.
