EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases Catherine of Braganza (1638-1705), the Portuguese princess who became Queen Consort of England upon her marriage to King Charles II in 1662. The photograph, sourced from Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, revealing not only Catherine's regal beauty but also her personal touch through her signature and seal. Born in Portugal in 1638, Catherine was the eldest daughter of John IV of Portugal and Luisa de Guzman. Her marriage to Charles II was a strategic alliance aimed at strengthening the relationship between England and Portugal. Catherine's arrival in England in 1662 was met with great enthusiasm, and she was described as a "jewel of the Indies" due to her dark complexion and exotic appearance. The queen is depicted here wearing a sumptuous attire, adorned with pearls and a choker necklace, reflecting the opulence of the royal court. Her decolletage, a fashionable trend during the late 17th century, adds to her allure. However, it is Catherine's signature and seal that make this photograph truly unique. The signature, written in elegant script, reads "Catherina Regina," meaning "Catherine, the Queen." The seal, bearing the image of the Virgin Mary and the inscription "S. Maria de Villa Viçosa," represents Catherine's devotion to her patron saint. This photograph, dated 1705, offers a rare and intimate look into the life of Catherine of Braganza, a queen who left an indelible mark on English history. Her legacy extends beyond her marriage to King Charles II, as she is credited with introducing the custom of drinking tea to England and promoting Catholicism in the country. This image serves as a reminder of the rich and complex history that Catherine brought to the English court and the enduring impact she had on the nation.
