Las Infantas aprovechan una visita al golfo (pérsico) para inocularse la vacuna contra la #COVID19. Con una edad entre los 55 y 60 años, en España no se encuentran entre los grupos prioritarios. Casa Real no se ha pronunciado al respecto.https://t.co/EqNRLwPZK9 https://t.co/XfJq58Krcn

Alonso Sánchez Coello [Spanish. 1531–1588] Las infantas Isabel Clara Eugenia y Catalina Micaela c.1575

Philip II’s two daughters Isabel Clara Eugenia (1566-1633) and Catalina Micaela (1567-1597), were repeatedly portrayed from the time they were very small by Alonso Sánchez Coello, one of the king’s court painters. Those likenesses had the characteristics of court portraits, reflecting not only the sitters’ features and their royal context, but also the type of society and state being depicted. The girls’ solemn, distant aspect reflects their condition as the king’s daughters, charged with transmitting values that Sánchez Coello, as their family’s portrait painter, also had to represent.

The use of portraits to track the healthy growth of the dynasty’s younger members was not merely a matter of family love. Such works were fundamental tools in matters of succession and matrimonial politics. By all indications, Philip II was very fond of these girls born to his French wife, Isabel von Valois. Moreover, the two infantas would later contribute to the consolidation of Philip II’s influence in places as important to Spain as Northern Italy and the Netherlands, when Catalina Micaela become Duchess of Savoy and Isabel Clara Eugenia, Governor of the Netherlands.

In the present double portrait, the infantas are shown standing in an undefined indoor space that contains only a writing desk covered with a green cloth. The other two portraits of these girls are also double. The first is at the monastery of Las Descalzas Reales in Madrid and must have been made in 1568, the year their mother died. The other dates from 1571 (London, Buckingham Palace). The two girls appear in a similar arrangement in both, juxtaposed on the same plain and isolated. The portrait maintains the conventions set for adult members of the royal family: they are distant, severe and inexpressive, which is completely logical here, as this is not a double portrait of children, but instead a likeness of the king’s daughters. The link between the two figures is established in a very straightforward manner by having the two girls hold a floral wreath that occupies the approximate center of the composition. This layout is quite similar to the version in London, which was made in 1571, although here the young girl appears more dependent and elusive than her older sister, who looks openly at the viewer. It has been suggested that Sánchez Coello may have based their positions on the composition of Jan van Eyck’s Arnolfini Marriage, which was then in Philip II’s collection and is now at the National Gallery in London (Text drawn from Ruiz, L.: El Prado en el Ermitage, Museo Nacional del Prado, 2011, pp. 88-89).

Las infantas 👸🏻 ¡En España, una figura única! Infante es un título con tratamiento de Alteza Real que se otorga a los hijos del rey y del príncipe o princesa heredera, dentro de lo que se llama Familia Real. A diferencia de otras monarquías europeas aquí el heredero de la corona es llamado príncipe o princesa, recibiendo el Principado de Asturias; los demás hijos del rey de España y los hijos de este príncipe o princesa de Asturias son llamados infantes o infantas de España, por tradición histórica pero tratados como príncipes al recibir tratamiento de alteza real. 💎 #pacopacomadrid #familia real #infantas #meninas #infantasofia #princesaleonor #familiareal #casarealespañola #casareal #rey #reinodeespaña #spanish #spanishboy #russianboys #venezuelanboys #finnish #italianboys #polishboys #finnishboys #royal #swedishgirls #swedish #spanishboys (en Palacio Real de Madrid, España) https://www.instagram.com/p/BykMiJ7g15B/?igshid=1k6cuck7ugxf
