About the piece
Painted in 1653 by Hendrik Munnichhoven, this grand double portrait depicts Count Magnus Gabriel De la Gardie and his wife, Princess Maria Euphrosyne of Pfalz-Zweibrücken. The couple is shown in opulent, gold-embroidered garments, standing on a stone terrace against a soft, clouded sky, exemplifying the height of Baroque portraiture and aristocratic prestige.
