About the piece
Painted in the mid-19th century by the celebrated court portraitist Franz Xaver Winterhalter, this work captures Queen Isabella II of Spain with her daughter, the Princess of Asturias. The painting is a tour de force of texture, meticulously rendering the delicate layers of white lace, the shimmer of silk, and the rich velvet of the red drapery that frames the royal subjects.
