EDITORS COMMENTS
This wedding portrait captures the union of Ladislaus the Posthumous and Magdalena of Valois, two prominent figures in European history. Painted by an unknown artist in 1457, this oil on wood masterpiece measures 38.5x52 inches and is currently housed at the Szepmuveszeti Muzeum in Budapest. Ladislaus, a member of the Habsburg dynasty, was known as "the Posthumous" due to his birth after his father's death. His bride, Magdalena of Valois, hailed from France and brought her own royal lineage to their marriage. The couple's regal status is evident through their elegant attire and opulent accessories. The painting showcases Ladislaus dressed in a resplendent costume adorned with jewels and a magnificent crown atop his head. Magdalena exudes grace and beauty with her intricate flower crown, delicate necklace featuring precious stones, and perfectly styled hair. Their love for each other radiates from their faces as they stand side by side against a backdrop of flowers. The artist skillfully captures every detail - from Ladislaus' piercing gaze to Magdalena's gentle smile - evoking a sense of romance that transcends time. This artwork not only serves as a testament to their union but also provides us with insights into medieval society and aristocratic life during the 15th century. It symbolizes wealth, elegance, power, and the importance placed on dynastic alliances within Europe
