Painting Description
"Madeleine de France (1520-37), Queen of Scotland, 1536" is a portrait painting by Corneille de Lyon, a Dutch artist who was active in France during the 16th century and became renowned for his detailed and intimate portraits of the French nobility. The painting depicts Madeleine of Valois, also known as Madeleine of France, who was the daughter of King Francis I of France and Queen Claude of France. Born on August 10, 1520, Madeleine was betrothed to James V of Scotland and became his queen consort following their marriage in January 1537.
The portrait is a testament to the brief and tragic life of Queen Madeleine, who died at the young age of 16, just seven months after her marriage, likely due to tuberculosis. Corneille de Lyon's work captures the youthful and delicate features of the queen, reflecting the style of portraiture that was popular among the French court during the Renaissance. The painting is characterized by its fine detail, the subtlety of the color palette, and the serene expression of the sitter, which was typical of Corneille de Lyon's portraiture.
As an artist, Corneille de Lyon was known for his small, highly finished portraits, often rendered in oil on wood panels. His works are distinguished by their smooth surface texture and the meticulous attention to the sitters' attire and accessories, which provide insights into the fashions and personalities of the French elite during his time.
"Madeleine de France (1520-37), Queen of Scotland, 1536" is an important work within Corneille de Lyon's oeuvre and serves as a valuable historical document, offering a glimpse into the life of a young queen whose time on the throne was fleeting. The painting is also significant for its artistic merit, showcasing the skill and sensitivity of one of the 16th century's most accomplished portraitists.
