Henrietta Maria, Queen of England
ca. 1636–38
Oil on canvas

The eldest daughter of Marie de Medici, queen of France, Henrietta Maria married the ill-fated Charles I of England in 1625. As a Roman Catholic who did not speak English, she faced immediate challenges at the court in London. The marriage was really a political alliance at a time when Great Britain was facing growing problems at home and abroad. The ensuing civil war ended with her husband’s conviction and execution for treason.
Charles and Henrietta Maria were avid and generous art patrons who brought painters such as Orazio and Artemisia Gentileschi, Peter Paul Rubens, and Anthony van Dyck to their court. --MAB 2015
