About the Item

Portrait of Isabella Farnese, Queen Consort of Spain, 18th Century Oil on oval canvas depicting Isabella Farnese (1692–1766), queen consort of Spain by her marriage to Philip V. The sovereign appears dressed in an ermine mantle, a jeweled dress, and a pearl necklace, in an attitude of royal dignity. Her high, powdered hairstyle reflects early 18th-century court fashion. A work by the European school of portrait painting (probably Italian or Spanish), executed around 1715–1730, coinciding with Isabella's arrival at the Spanish court. Although it was acquired as 17th century, the iconography and the queen's life history confirm its origin in the early decades of the 18th century. The canvas retains a fine color quality and naturalism, highlighting the elegance of her clothing. Framed in a gilt frame with a ribbon and rocaille decoration at the top, added in the 19th century. A historical piece of great interest for its iconographic and collector's value, linked to one of the most influential political figures of the Bourbon monarchy in Spain. 78cm x 63.5cm with frame: 88cm x 73.5cm

Late 17th Century Oil Portrait of a Lady
Located in Lymington, GB
An oil on canvas portrait of a young French courtier, circa 1690. This evocative antique French-school picture has been attributed to the portrait painter Jean-François de Troy (1679-1752). De Troy was famous as a portrait painter of fashionable society women. This is a very attractive late-17th century painting surviving in its original frame and stretcher. The canvas appears to be untouched. References: 'Jean François de Troy, The Alarm, or the Gouvernante Fidèle', at the Victoria and Albert Museum, London. 'Jean François de Troy, Paris 1679 - Rome 1752', at the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum. Laurie G. Winters, Troy, de, Grove Art Online, Oxford Art Online, Oxford University Press, 6 May 2016.
