EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print, titled "Queen Christina in Palazzo Corsini" by Danish painter Kristian Zahrtmann, depicts Queen Christina of Sweden, who abdicated her throne in 1654 and moved to Rome. In this image, the queen is shown in an unconventional setting, seated in front of a fireplace with a pipe in hand and lifting her dress to warm her behind. Queen Christina was renowned for her unconventional lifestyle and occasional masculine style of dressing, which challenged the societal norms of the time. The photograph, taken in 1908, is a testament to the queen's enduring legacy and her continued relevance as a symbol of gender fluidity and individuality. The painting is an oil on canvas, and its rich colors and intricate details bring the queen's story to life. The backdrop of the Palazzo Corsini, a historic building in Rome, adds to the regal and timeless feel of the image. Christina Augusta Wasa, as she was born, was the last monarch of the House of Wasa in Sweden. Her reign was marked by her patronage of the arts, literature, and science. After her abdication, she continued to collect books and statues, which are now part of the collections of the National Gallery of Denmark and Statens Museum for Kunst. This photograph print is a must-see for anyone interested in art, fashion, and history. It offers a unique glimpse into the life of a queen who defied the conventions of her time and continues to inspire and challenge us today.
