Struensee and Caroline Mathilde at the dead body of Queen Sofie Magdalene, 1910
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this historical painting from 1910, we are transported to a poignant moment in Danish history. The scene depicts Count Johann Friedrich Struensee and Caroline Mathilde standing solemnly beside the lifeless body of Queen Sofie Magdalene. Painted with meticulous detail by an unknown artist, this oil on canvas print captures the raw emotions that surround this tragic event. Caroline Mathilde, also known as Caroline Matilda, was the queen consort of King Christian VII of Denmark during a tumultuous period in the late 18th century. Count Struensee, a trusted advisor to King Christian VII, became romantically involved with Caroline Mathilde while exerting significant influence over political affairs. The death of Queen Sofie Magdalene marks a turning point in their illicit relationship and ultimately leads to their downfall. As we gaze upon this powerful image, we can sense the weight of their forbidden love and its consequences. This private collection print allows us to delve into Danish history through artistry. It serves as a reminder that even within royal circles, human emotions can shape destinies and alter nations' courses forever. Fine Art Images/Heritage Images has preserved this historical masterpiece for us to appreciate and reflect upon for generations to come.
