EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Catherine of Braganza, the Queen Consort of King Charles II, in all her regal splendor. Captured in 1912 from a painting by Henri Gascar, this image beautifully portrays the second surviving daughter of King John IV of Portugal and his wife Louise of Guzman. Catherine's striking features are accentuated by her luscious brown hair styled elegantly in a period-appropriate hairdo. Her inquisitive gaze adds an air of intrigue to her portrait, reflecting the complexities that come with being a queen during the 17th century. Dressed in vibrant shades of blue and red, Catherine exudes power and authority befitting her role as monarch. The intricate details on her gown highlight the craftsmanship and attention to detail prevalent during this era. As Queen Consort, Catherine played an integral part in British history. Her marriage to Charles II solidified alliances between England and Portugal while also introducing tea-drinking customs that remain popular today. This remarkable print is part of Chairman & Vice-Chair Miniatures cigarette cards produced by R. J. Lea Ltd. , Manchester in 1912. It serves as a testament to both Catherine's enduring legacy and the artistry captured by Henri Gascar over three centuries earlier.
