EDITORS COMMENTS
This oil on canvas print showcases the elegant and enigmatic Louise Maximilienne Caroline, Countess of Albany. Painted by the talented artist François Xavier Fabre, this masterpiece is housed in the prestigious Galleria degli Uffizi in Florence, Italy. Louise Maximilienne Caroline was not only a countess but also a woman of great complexity and influence. Born in 1752 to Prince Gustav-Adolf of Stolberg-Gedern and Princess Elisabeth of Hornes, she would go on to marry Prince Charles Edward Stuart in 1774. However, her story took an unexpected turn when she became the lover of renowned poet Vittorio Alfieri after her husband's death. Following Alfieri's passing in 1803, Louise found solace and companionship with none other than the artist Fabre himself. Their friendship blossomed as they shared their love for art and culture. In this painting, Louise exudes grace and poise as she gazes into the distance. Her regal attire is complemented by a shawl draped delicately over her shoulders. The subtle brushstrokes capture every intricate detail of her beauty while hinting at the depth within. As we admire this remarkable artwork from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are transported back to a time where romance intertwined with artistic expression. It serves as a reminder that behind every portrait lies an untold story waiting to be discovered.
