EDITORS COMMENTS
This 17th century portrait depicts Henry II, Duke of Bourbon-Orleans, also known as Henri II de Bourbon-Longueville or Henri d'Orléans (1595-1663). The anonymous artist, believed to be Anselm van Hulle or Anselmus van Hulle, masterfully captured the duke's regal presence in this oil on canvas painting. Born as an illegitimate son of King Henry IV of France, Henri II was a prominent figure in European politics, serving as a diplomat, commissary, and envoy for France and the Dutch Republic. Henri II is shown here in formal attire, wearing a black coat and jacket with golden accents, a sign of his noble status. His moustache and facial hair are meticulously groomed, adding to his distinguished appearance. The duke's gaze is directed away from the viewer, suggesting deep thought or introspection. The painting's location is uncertain, but it is now housed in the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm, Sweden, a testament to the global reach of European art and culture during the 17th century. The portrait is a fascinating glimpse into the fashion and aesthetics of the time, showcasing the intricate details of the duke's apparel and the artist's skillful use of color and brushwork.
