This portrait depicts Princess Elizabeth, the daughter of King Charles I of England. The Dutch Golden Age painter Gerard van Honthorst created this work sometime during his career, which spanned from 1592-1656. Princess Elizabeth, also known as the Princess Royal, is dressed in a regal green gown adorned with pearls, which emphasize her status. This painting showcases Honthorst's mastery of chiaroscuro, a technique that uses dramatic contrasts of light and shadow to create a sense of depth and volume. This portrait is likely a depiction of Princess Elizabeth, who was the daughter of Charles I, which is the primary subject of this artwork.
