EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history, showcasing the meeting of two powerful monarchs - Gustav III of Sweden and Catherine II of Russia. The image depicts the royal couple in Fredrikshamn (now Hamina, Finland) during 1784. Painted by Cornelius Hoyer, this watercolour on parchment measures 44x38 cm and is currently housed at the Nationalmuseum Stockholm. Intriguingly, this artwork sheds light on international relations and political agreements between nations during that era. The inkwell and paper visible in the portrait symbolize diplomacy and communication as essential tools for maintaining peace among countries. Catherine II, also known as Catherine the Great, was renowned for her astute leadership skills while ruling over Russia from 1762 to 1796. King Gustav III played a crucial role in Swedish politics during his reign from 1771 to 1792. The composition beautifully portrays both individuals with regal elegance. Catherine exudes grace and authority as she stands beside Gustav III, who emanates confidence befitting a king. Their presence signifies not only their respective countries but also represents Scandinavia's influence within Europe. This remarkable piece of art serves as a testament to the grandeur of monarchy while offering us a glimpse into an important historical event that shaped European politics at that time.
