EDITORS COMMENTS
This detail from the renowned painting 'Emperor Maximilian I with His Family' by Bernhard Strigel showcases Philip I of Castile, also known as Philip the Handsome, in all his regal splendor. Born in 1478, Philip was the first Habsburg monarch to rule over the Kingdom of Castile. His striking appearance, with his fair complexion and handsome features, earned him this moniker. The painting, created between 1516 and 1520, depicts Philip in the company of his powerful Habsburg family, including his father, Emperor Maximilian I, and his future wife, Joanna the Mad, the daughter of Ferdinand and Isabella of Spain. This artwork highlights the complex web of political alliances and familial ties that characterized the late medieval and early modern periods in Europe. Philip's reign as King of Castile was brief, as he passed away in 1506, at the young age of 28. However, his impact on history was significant, as he marked the beginning of Habsburg rule in Spain, which would last for over 700 years. The House of Habsburg's influence extended far beyond the Iberian Peninsula, shaping the course of European history through its numerous territorial acquisitions and political maneuverings. Bernhard Strigel masterfully captured the essence of Philip the Handsome in this painting, immortalizing his image for future generations to marvel at. The intricately detailed oil on wood technique employed by Strigel showcases the artistic prowess of the late Gothic period, offering a glimpse into the opulence and grandeur of the Habsburg court during the late 15th and early 16th centuries.
