EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a jewelled frame that once held a portrait miniature of Queen Anne of Denmark. Created around 1611, this exquisite piece is adorned with enamel, gold, and table diamonds, reflecting the opulence and grandeur of the Baroque era. The oval-shaped frame measures 5.4x4.3 cm and is currently housed at the prestigious Fitzwilliam Museum in the University of Cambridge, UK. The intricate design features various royal insignia and symbols associated with Queen Anne's reign. From her monogram to precious stones carefully embedded within the frame, every detail speaks to her status as a monarch. Crafted by an English School artist from the 17th century, this masterpiece exemplifies their exceptional skill in creating ornate jewellery fit for royalty. The vibrant red backdrop further enhances the regal aura surrounding this jewel-encrusted frame. It serves as a reminder of Queen Anne's power and influence during her time as ruler of Denmark. Notably significant is that this work was not created for commercial use but rather as a testament to artistic excellence during its time period. Its historical value cannot be understated, especially considering its connection to renowned painter Nicholas Hilliard and Jacobean artistry. In capturing both beauty and history within one image, this print transports viewers back in time to appreciate the magnificence of Queen Anne's portrait miniature framed by these stunning jewels
