EDITORS COMMENTS
This 18th century silhouette depicts Queen Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz, the consort of King George III of England, in an intimate moment with her beloved pet dog. The image, beautifully preserved and framed, captures the essence of the royal pair's affectionate bond. Queen Charlotte, dressed in the height of fashionable 18th century attire, is shown seated at a table, her profile gracefully silhouetted against a light background. Her elaborate headdress, adorned with feathers and other ornate embellishments, adds an air of regal elegance to the scene. In her right hand, she holds a fan, a popular accessory for women of the time. At her feet, a small dog, likely a Pug or a King Charles Spaniel, sits attentively, gazing up at its mistress with unwavering loyalty. The dog's silhouette is equally detailed, revealing its curled tail and pointed ears. The art of silhouette making was a popular pastime during the 18th and 19th centuries, with many wealthy individuals commissioning portraits of themselves and their loved ones in this unique and striking medium. This particular silhouette, created by an unknown artist, offers a rare glimpse into the personal lives of the royal family and their pets, providing a fascinating glimpse into the past. The image, entitled "Silhouette of Queen Charlotte with her Dog," is a testament to the enduring appeal of silhouette portraits and the deep connection between people and their pets, a bond that transcends time and culture.
