Charlotte Consort Hanoverian Mecklenburg Strelitz
EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 18th century portrait captures the elegance and grace of Queen Charlotte, Consort of King George III. Born Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz in 1744, she was the daughter of Duke Charles Louis Frederick of Mecklenburg-Strelitz and Princess Elisabeth Albertina of Saxe-Hildburghausen. In 1761, Charlotte was married to the future King George III of Great Britain, marking the beginning of her illustrious reign as queen consort. The portrait showcases Queen Charlotte's refined beauty and elegant attire, with her long, curly hair styled in the fashionable "Fontange" curls of the time. Her regal attire, adorned with intricate lace and pearls, further accentuates her status as a monarch. The delicate embroidery on her dress and the exquisite detailing of her headdress reflect the opulence and grandeur of the Hanoverian court. Queen Charlotte was known for her intelligence, kindness, and devotion to her husband and children. She was a beloved figure among the British people and played an active role in court life, patronizing the arts and supporting various charities. Her influence extended beyond the court, as she was also an advocate for German culture in Britain and helped to promote the German language and customs. This portrait is a testament to the beauty, elegance, and influence of Queen Charlotte, Consort of King George III, and provides a glimpse into the opulence and grandeur of the Hanoverian court during the 18th century.
