EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite portrait captures the regal beauty and grace of Marie-Thérèse of Austria (1638-1683), the daughter of Philip IV of Spain, who became the Queen Consort of Louis XIV of France in 1660. The image, dated between 1638 and 1683, showcases Marie-Thérèse's striking features, with her piercing dark eyes, full lips, and delicate complexion. Her elaborate hairstyle, adorned with pearls and intricate braids, is a testament to the opulence and grandeur of the royal court. Marie-Thérèse's marriage to Louis XIV was a significant political alliance between Spain and France, as well as a personal union between two powerful monarchs. The union produced seven children, including the future King Louis XV. However, Marie-Thérèse's influence on French court life was limited, as Louis XIV's power grew and he began to favor other advisors and mistresses. Despite her diminished role, Marie-Thérèse remained a respected and beloved figure at the French court, known for her piety and charitable works. She continued to uphold the traditions and customs of her Spanish heritage, and her legacy as a Queen Consort of France endures as an important chapter in the history of European royalty.
