EDITORS COMMENTS
Catherine Sedley, Countess of Dorchester (1657-1717), was a prominent figure in the tumultuous political landscape of Restoration England. Born Catherine Sedley, she rose to prominence as the mistress of King James II, a relationship that began in the late 1670s and continued until his exile in 1688. This striking portrait, believed to have been painted around the time of her relationship with James II, captures the allure and sophistication of Catherine Sedley. She is depicted wearing an elegant, flowing gown adorned with intricate lace and a jeweled necklace, her dark hair styled in elaborate curls. The subtle expression on her face suggests a woman of intelligence and cunning, qualities that would serve her well in the court of James II. Catherine Sedley's relationship with the king was a source of controversy and scandal. She bore him two children, both of whom were acknowledged as illegitimate and later legitimized by the king. Her influence at court was significant, and she was known to have wielded power behind the scenes. However, her fortunes took a turn for the worse when James II was deposed in the Glorious Revolution of 1688. Catherine and her children were forced into exile with the king, and she spent the remainder of her life in France. Despite the challenges she faced, Catherine Sedley remained a figure of intrigue and fascination, a testament to the complex and often scandalous nature of the Restoration court. This portrait is a fascinating glimpse into the life of a woman who played a pivotal role in the political and social history of England in the late 17th century. It serves as a reminder of the power and influence that could be wielded by those close to the throne, as well as the risks and rewards of such a position.
