EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Mary of Modena, the esteemed wife of King James II of Great Britain. Dressed in a resplendent velvet and ermine gown adorned with exquisite gems, she exudes regal elegance. A stunning pearl necklace graces her neck, adding to her majestic allure. The crown placed outside the frame symbolizes her royal status and reinforces her position as queen. The copperplate engraving by Jean Audran beautifully captures this enchanting portrait, which is based on a painting by Godfrey Kneller after Adriaen van der Werff. This artwork was featured in Isaac de Larrey's "Histoire d'Angleterre, d'Ecosse et d'Irlande" published in Amsterdam in 1730. Mary of Modena holds an important place in history as the wife of King James II during a tumultuous period for England. Her presence here evokes a sense of intrigue and curiosity about the political climate and social customs of 18th century Europe. The intricate foliage border surrounding the portrait adds a decorative touch to this historical piece. It serves as a reminder that art has always been intertwined with storytelling and preserving cultural heritage. This print from Fine Art Finder transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and grace of Mary of Modena while also offering glimpses into European history.
