Elisabeth is depicted with the elaborate attire and regal bearing befitting a princess of France and a queen consort of Spain, showcasing the intricate designs and luxurious materials typical of the period's high nobility. Secondly, the work is a testament to the skill and artistry of the studio of François Clouet, who was renowned for his ability to capture the likeness and personality of his sitters with remarkable accuracy and sensitivity.

Although the portrait is attributed to Clouet's studio rather than the master himself, it retains the qualities characteristic of Clouet's work, including meticulous attention to detail, a nuanced approach to color, and a sophisticated rendering of textures. The painting not only highlights the cultural and artistic exchanges between France and Spain but also reflects the broader trends of portraiture in the 16th century, emphasizing the role of art in diplomacy and the projection of royal power and prestige.

Today, "Elisabeth of France (1545-68) 1559" is appreciated not only for its historical and artistic value but also for its contribution to our understanding of the complexities of European courtly life and the intricate relationships that shaped the politics and culture of the Renaissance era.
