EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Philip II, the King of Spain, from the series Counts and Countesses of Holland, Zeeland. Created in the 17th century by Dutch artist Cornelis de Visscher, this engraving beautifully captures the regal essence of King Philip II. In this portrait, King Philip II exudes power and authority with his commanding presence. His bearded face is framed by a stylish hat that adds to his majestic appearance. The intricate details of his clothing reflect the fashion trends of the time period. As one gazes at this image, they are transported back to a significant era in history when Spain held great influence over Europe. King Philip II was known for being prudent and wise in his rule as he governed both Spain and Portugal during a time of immense political turmoil. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in Netherlands, this artwork serves as a testament to Cornelis de Visscher's skillful craftsmanship and ability to capture not only physical likeness but also the essence of an individual's character. The second state out of three versions available, this particular print has become an iconic representation of royalty during the seventeenth century. It offers viewers a glimpse into an era where monarchs reigned supreme and their portraits were revered as symbols of power and prestige.
