EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning portrait captures the regal beauty and power of Margaret of York, also known as Margaret, Duchess of Burgundy (1446-1503). Daughter of the Yorkist king, Richard Plantagenet, 3rd Duke of York, and Cecily Neville, Margaret was the sister of Edward IV and Richard III of England. In 1468, she married Charles the Bold, Duke of Burgundy, marking a significant political alliance between England and the powerful Duchy of Burgundy. Margaret's elegant attire in this portrait reflects the opulence and grandeur of the Burgundian court. She wears a richly decorated gown of velvet or damask, likely in the color burgundy, adorned with intricate embroidery and beadwork. A fur-trimmed mantle draped over her shoulders adds an air of luxury and warmth. The elaborate headdress, adorned with pearls and feathers, completes the regal look. Margaret's reign as Duchess of Burgundy was marked by political intrigue and conflict. She played a crucial role in the Burgundian Wars, which pitted her husband against the French monarchy. After Charles's death in 1477, Margaret acted as regent for her son, Philip the Handsome, until his coming of age. Her strong leadership and diplomatic skills helped maintain the independence of the Duchy of Burgundy amidst the larger political landscape of Europe. This portrait, likely created around the time of her marriage to Charles the Bold, offers a glimpse into the life and style of a powerful and influential queen of the late medieval period. Margaret's legacy continues to be celebrated in both English and Burgundian history, making this image a valuable and intriguing addition to any collection of historical portraits.
