EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite half-length portrait captures the enigmatic beauty and regal presence of Caroline of Brunswick (1768-1821), the estranged and controversial wife of George IV, King of the United Kingdom from 1820 to 1830. The portrait, believed to have been painted between 1768 and 1821, showcases Caroline in profile, her expressive face framed by a cascade of chestnut curls. Her piercing gaze and delicate features convey a sense of strength and determination, a testament to her complex and tumultuous life. Born Amelia Elizabeth Caroline of Brunswick, she was the daughter of Charles II, Duke of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel, and Princess Elizabeth of Great Britain. Her marriage to the future King George IV in 1795 was fraught with scandal and infidelity, resulting in a bitter separation in 1814. Despite this, Caroline remained a popular figure among the British people, who saw her as a symbol of resistance against the monarchy. This portrait, with its intricate details and masterful execution, offers a glimpse into the complex character of Caroline of Brunswick, a woman whose life was marked by love, scandal, and political intrigue. The portrait's enduring allure continues to captivate historians, artists, and the public, serving as a reminder of the intricacies and contradictions of the British monarchy and its fascinating history.
