EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Maria Christina de Bourbon-Sicile, the Queen of Spain during the early 19th century. Painted around 1829 by Vicente Lopez y Portana, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures 96x74 cm and is currently housed in the Prado Museum in Madrid, Spain. Maria Christina was not only known for her regal status but also for her exquisite beauty and elegance. In this portrait, she exudes grace and sophistication as she gazes into the distance with a serene expression. Adorned with a stunning pearl necklace and matching earrings, her royal status is further emphasized by the intricate silver brocade dress she wears. A striking feather headdress adds an element of grandeur to her ensemble, symbolizing power and authority. The artist has masterfully captured every detail of Maria Christina's features, highlighting her delicate facial structure and radiant complexion. As the wife of Ferdinand VII, Maria Christina played a significant role in Spanish history during a time marked by political turmoil. This portrait immortalizes her as a strong female figure who navigated through challenging times with poise and dignity. This remarkable piece serves as both an artistic treasure and historical documentation of one of Spain's influential queens. It stands as a testament to Vicente Lopez y Portana's exceptional talent in capturing not only physical likeness but also the essence of his subjects' personalities.
