Painting Description
"Princess Marina of Greece 1906-68" is a portrait painting by the Hungarian painter Philip Alexius de László, depicting Princess Marina, Duchess of Kent, born a Greek and Danish princess. Philip de László, known for his work as a society portraitist, captured numerous members of European royalty and aristocracy during his career, and this painting is one of his notable works in that genre.
Princess Marina (1906–1968) was the daughter of Prince Nicholas of Greece and Denmark and Grand Duchess Elena Vladimirovna of Russia. She married Prince George, Duke of Kent, the fourth son of King George V and Queen Mary, in 1934, thus becoming a member of the British royal family. Known for her elegance and style, Princess Marina was a prominent figure in British society and was involved in numerous charitable organizations.
The painting is a testament to de László's skill in capturing the poise and grace of his sitters, often employing a loose, impressionistic style that conveyed the character and status of the individual. His portraits are celebrated for their vivid realism and attention to detail, particularly in the rendering of textiles and the sitter's expression.
While the exact date of the painting "Princess Marina of Greece 1906-68" is not specified, de László's active period was between the late 19th century and the early 20th century, until his death in 1937. His works are held in various collections around the world, including the National Portrait Gallery in London and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
This portrait of Princess Marina is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its historical value, as it captures a member of the British royal family who was also connected to the royal houses of Greece and Denmark. The painting serves as a cultural artifact, reflecting the interconnectedness of European royalty during the period and the role of portrait art in documenting their likenesses for posterity.
