Painting Description
Queen Maria-Anna of Bavaria-Neuburg (1667-1740) Queen of Spain, wife of Charles II (1661-1700), in mourning, c.1700 is an esteemed baroque artwork by Juan Carreño de Miranda, renowned Spanish painter of the court of King Charles II. This painting, which adds significantly to the canon of seventeenth-century portraiture, depicts Queen Maria-Anna clad in mourning attire following the death of her husband.
Borniana of Neuburg, she ascended to the throne of Spain as the Queen Consort upon her marriage to Charles II in 1690, the marriage remaining childless due to Charles II's confirmed infertility. Queen Maria-Anna's influence and power during her husband's reign were considerable, heightened further during her tenure as ruler following her spouse's death. This period served as the inspiration for the creation of de Miranda's masterpiece, "Queen Maria-Anna of Bavaria-Neuburg (1667-1740) Queen of Spain, wife of Charles II (1661-1700), in mourning, c.1700".
Aesthetically, the artwork reflects the somber mood of the time and presents the deeply religious Queen, attired in full mourning dress, an atypically muted palette for de Miranda's otherwise vibrant realistic style, conveying majestic authority amidst personal loss. This potent combination of religious symbols and regal iconography underscores the weight of the delicate political situation in Spain after King Charles II's death, emphasizing the dual role embodied by Queen Maria-Anna as both the grieving Queen Consort and the political pivot in the throes of Spanish succession.
Juan Carreño de Miranda, renowned for his courtly and religious portraits, displays his masterful interpretation of light, texture, and form, balanced with a sensitivity to the historical contours of the subject. The painting enhances understanding of the complex character of Queen Maria-Anna and offers a penetrating glimpse into her personal and public life during an epoch of turmoil in Spanish history. The artwork remains an iconic representation of Spain's royal history and an exemplary testament to de Miranda’s painting prowess.
