Painting Description
"Portrait of Queen Sophie-Magdalene" is an 18th-century oil painting by the Swedish artist Lorentz the Younger Pasch (1733–1805), a prominent portrait painter of the Swedish court. The artwork captures Sophie-Magdalene of Brandenburg-Kulmbach (1700–1770), who was the Queen consort of Sweden as the wife of King Adolf Frederick. Known for her strong influence at court and her interest in religious and charitable endeavors, Sophie-Magdalene's portrayal by Pasch is significant as it reflects the royal aesthetics and the cultural milieu of the Swedish court during the Age of Liberty (1718–1772).
In this portrait, Queen Sophie-Magdalene is depicted in regal attire, adorned with the luxurious garments and jewels befitting her status. The painting is characterized by its meticulous attention to detail, particularly in the rendering of the queen's attire and the opulent accessories that signify her royal standing. Pasch's skillful use of light and shadow enhances the three-dimensionality of the figure, while his ability to capture the queen's dignified bearing and composed expression provides insight into her personality and the formality of her role.
Lorentz Pasch the Younger was trained by his father, Lorentz Pasch the Elder, and later in Paris, which influenced his style and technique. His work on royal portraits contributed to the documentation and perpetuation of the Swedish monarchy's public image during a period marked by political change and the shifting power dynamics between the monarchy and the Riksdag (the Swedish Parliament).
The "Portrait of Queen Sophie-Magdalene" holds cultural and historical significance as it not only represents the artistic talents of Pasch but also serves as a visual record of the Swedish monarchy in the 18th century. The painting is an important piece within the oeuvre of Pasch's royal portraits and is valued for its artistic merit as well as its contribution to the understanding of Swedish art and history.
Today, the portrait is part of the collections of the Swedish National Portrait Gallery or another notable institution, where it continues to be studied and appreciated by scholars and the public alike. Its preservation allows for ongoing appreciation and analysis of Pasch's work and the era in which Queen Sophie-Magdalene lived.
