Painting Description
"His Majesty James I and his Royal Progeny together with the Family of the King of Bohemia" is a notable engraving created by the Dutch-born artist Simon de Passe in the early 17th century, with a later version engraved by Charles Turner in 1814. The work is significant for its historical and artistic portrayal of the Stuart dynasty, depicting King James I of England (James VI of Scotland) and his family, including his son-in-law Frederick V, the Elector Palatine, who was also known as the King of Bohemia, and his family.
The engraving is a detailed representation of the royal family, showcasing the lineage and succession of the Stuart monarchy. It serves as an important visual document of the period, reflecting the political alliances and dynastic connections that were central to European politics at the time. The inclusion of the King of Bohemia's family highlights the marriage between James I's daughter, Elizabeth Stuart, and Frederick V, which had significant political implications, including the initiation of the Thirty Years' War following Frederick's acceptance of the Bohemian crown.
Simon de Passe was a renowned engraver and medalist of his time, known for his portraits of English royalty and nobility. His work is characterized by meticulous detail and a commitment to realism, attributes that are evident in this engraving. Charles Turner, one of the most prominent British engravers of the 19th century, later re-engraved this historical piece, ensuring its preservation and continued appreciation.
The engraving is not only a work of art but also a document of historical importance, providing insight into the iconography of monarchy and the visual dissemination of royal imagery in the early modern period. It is a testament to the skill of both Simon de Passe and Charles Turner, whose works continue to be studied and admired for their technical excellence and historical value.
