Alma K Soutter after Hans Holbein Portrait of Christina of Denmark, Duchess of Milan, in mourning oil on canvas 180 x 82cm (70 x 32in) Provenance: The Walden School, Saffron Walden, Essex Other Notes: The present painting is after the original in the National Gallery, London, acquired in 1911, when sold by the Duke of Norfolk. This is a life size copy. Christina of Denmark (1521 – 1590) was a Danish princess, the younger surviving daughter of King Christian II of Denmark and Norway and Isabella of Austria. She was described as a great beauty, intelligent and lively, and enjoyed hunting and riding. On 23 September 1533 in Brussels, Christina was married by proxy to Francesco II Sforza, Duke of Milan - he died in 1535 and she was left a widow at the age of thirteen. The German painter Hans Holbein was commissioned to paint portraits of noblewomen eligible to become the English Queen. On 10 March 1538, Holbein arrived in Brussels with the diplomat Philip Hoby to meet Christina. Hoby arranged with Benedict, the Master of Christina's household, for a sitting the next day. Christina sat for the portrait for three hours wearing mourning dress. Christina, then only sixteen years old, made no secret of her opposition to marrying the English King after Catherine of Aragon and Anne Boleyn. Under glass whcih is quite dirty. Some craquelure.
