Artwork Title: First known portrait of Princess Elizabeth (Elizabeth Stuart, The Winter Queen)

First known portrait of Princess Elizabeth (Elizabeth Stuart, The Winter Queen), 1596-1662

Robert Peake

In the same year, Peake also painted his first portrait of James I's only surviving daughter, Elizabeth. This work, like the double portrait, for which it might be a companion piece, appears to have been painted for the Harington family, who acted as Elizabeth's guardians from 1603 to 1608. In the background of Elizabeth's portrait is a hunting scene echoing that of the double portrait, and two ladies sit on an artificial mound of a type fashionable in garden design at the time.
