Tutte le aste / Altro / Federico de Madrazo (1815-1894)


- Oil on canvas. Original canvas. - This portrait of the apparatus of Queen Elizabeth II of Spain stands as an outstanding example of Isabeline official portraiture from the mid-19th century, conceived to project the majesty and decorum of the crown. The sovereign is depicted three-quarter, wearing a sumptuous gala dress in a satin bluish-green tone adorned with intricate zigzag borders and lace, complemented by the crown and scepter arranged to the right on a crimson velvet cushion. The composition balances the distinction of the royal jewels and the formal gloves with the restraint of the architectural background, achieving an effigy that merges institutional pomp with the refinement characteristic of the courtly milieu. The general conception of the painting scrupulously fulfils the guidelines and models set by the workshop of Federico de Madrazo y Kuntz, First Painter of the Court and hegemonic figure of academic portraiture at the Madrid court. Madrazo’s workshop standardized this type of regal effigies to meet the high demand for official portraits destined for state bodies, embassies, and high institutions, characterized by compositional sobriety, refined drawing of features, and an impeccable technical rendering of gala attire. However, certain aspects of the painting’s execution allow us to assign the direct handiwork of this canvas to the hand of Leopoldo Sánchez del Bierzo, a prominent pupil and collaborator within Madrazo’s workshop. This particular intervention is evident in the decisiveness of the drawing and the volumetric modeling of the queen’s face, as well as in the meticulous craft in rendering material qualities, from the changing reflections of satin to the meticulous shine of the gemstones and the crown. Sánchez del Bierzo demonstrates here his mastery in replicating the formal language of the master, while also contributing a clean and precise technical definition in the portrayal of the character. - Image dimensions without frame: 105 x 145 cm / 120 x 160 cm with exclusive custom frame.
