EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite portrait captures the enchanting beauty and regal grace of Polyxena of Hesse-Rotenburg (1706-1735), Queen of Sardinia, in the prime of her youth during the 1720s. The painting was created by the renowned Italian artist Maria Giovanna Clementina (La Clementina) (1692-1761), a leading figure of the School of Turin in the Rococo period. Born in Hesse-Rotenburg, Polyxena was the daughter of Count Palatine Philipp Wilhelm of Neuburg and his wife, Princess Maria Anna of Austria. In 1722, she was married to Victor Amadeus II, Duke of Savoy and King of Sardinia, marking the beginning of her illustrious royal career. The portrait depicts Polyxena in an elegant and refined manner, dressed in the latest fashion of the time, with an intricately designed gown and a delicate lace veil adorning her head. Her expressive eyes convey a sense of intelligence, warmth, and strength, while her delicate features and rosy complexion radiate youthful allure. La Clementina masterfully captures the essence of Polyxena's beauty and regality, using her exceptional skill in oil painting to create a captivating and timeless work of art. The painting's rich colors, intricate details, and delicate brushstrokes are a testament to the artist's unparalleled talent and the opulence of the Rococo period. Today, this stunning portrait of Polyxena of Hesse-Rotenburg, Queen of Sardinia, remains a cherished masterpiece in the private collection of an esteemed art connoisseur, a reminder of the beauty, elegance, and grandeur of the past.
