"Anthony van Dyck: A Master of Portraits and Parodies" Step into the world of Anthony van Dyck, a renowned Flemish artist whose brushstrokes captured the essence of his subjects with unparalleled skill. From regal queens to noble lords, van Dyck's portraits brought life to the canvas. In "Queen Henrietta Maria with Sir Jeffrey Hudson, 1633, " we witness the grace and elegance of royalty as Queen Henrietta Maria is accompanied by her loyal companion. The intricate details in their attire showcase van Dyck's attention to precision. Another notable work is "Philip, Lord Wharton, 1632, " where Lord Wharton exudes power and authority through his commanding gaze.

" Though not directly painted by van Dyck himself, it showcases how his influence extended beyond his own hand.
