EDITORS COMMENTS
This oil on canvas print, titled "Charles XI's family with relatives from the duchy Holstein-Gottorp, 1691" transports us back to a bygone era of aristocracy and regal splendor. Painted by David Klocker Ehrenstrahl in 1691, this masterpiece measures 64x68 cm and is housed at the Livrustkammaren (The Royal Armoury) in Stockholm, Sweden. In this exquisite portrait, we are introduced to an illustrious gathering of Swedish royalty and their esteemed guests. The central figures are Dowager Queen Hedvig Eleonora and her two sons: Charles XI and Charles XII. Surrounding them are other members of the royal family including Ulrika Eleonora the Elder and Ulrika Eleonora. Also present are Frederick IV of Holstein Gottorp along with his wife Frederica Amalia of Holstein and Gottorp Hedwig Sophia. Together, they form a distinguished group that represents both Swedish nobility as well as their Danish counterparts from Schleswig-Holstein-Gottorp. The composition is richly adorned with oriental rugs, drapery cascading elegantly in the background, emphasizing the opulence associated with European courts during this period. The presence of dogs adds a touch of warmth to the scene while fur garments highlight their status within society. Ehrenstrahl's attention to detail captures not only the physical likeness but also conveys each individual's unique personality through subtle nuances
