EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait from the early 16th century showcases Catherine of Aragon, Queen Consort of England, alongside her beloved pet monkey. Painted in the Netherlands around 1530 by an anonymous artist, this copy after Lucas Horenbout's original work captures the essence of Catherine's regal presence and her affection for her unusual companion. The fine art image depicts Catherine dressed in opulent attire, exuding grace and elegance. Her gaze is both confident and gentle as she holds her pet monkey close to her chest. The monkey, a symbol of curiosity and playfulness, adds a touch of whimsy to the composition. Executed with meticulous detail using oil on wood technique, this painting exemplifies the mastery of early Netherlandish art. The rich colors and intricate brushwork bring depth and life to every element within the frame. Housed within a private collection today, this portrait offers us a glimpse into Catherine's personal life beyond her royal duties. It reveals a tender side to this influential queen who faced numerous challenges during her time in England. As we admire this remarkable piece of history, let us appreciate not only its artistic beauty but also its ability to transport us back in time - reminding us that even powerful figures like Catherine found solace in their animal companionship.
