Teulu Harri VIII: Alegori o'r Olyniaeth Duduraidd

Artist: HEERE, Lucas de (1534-1584)

Mae'r darlun hwn yn dathlu'r heddwch a sefydlodd y Frenhines Elisabeth I. Mae Elisabeth ar y dde yn dal llaw Heddwch ac mae Digonedd yn ei dilyn. Mae ei thad Harri VIII, sylfaenydd Eglwys Loegr, yn eistedd ar ei orsedd gan drosglwyddo cleddyf cyfiawnder i"w fab Protestannaidd, Edward VI. Ar y chwith mae hanner chwaer ac olynydd Elisabeth, y Babyddes Mari I a"i gŵr Philip II o Sbaen, gyda Mawrth, Duw Rhyfel. Mae'r llun, rhodd gan y Frenhines Elizabeth i Syr Francis Walsingham, yn enghraifft dda o ddiddordeb yr unfed ganrif ar bymtheg mewn alegorïau, gweledigaeth y Frenhines ohoni ei hun fel penllanw'r olyniaeth Duduraidd a'i phryder am gyfreithlondeb ei theyrnasiad.

Daeth Lucas de Heere i Lundain o Ghent ddiwedd y 1560au. Roedd yn un o nifer o arlunwyr a chrefftwyr Protestannaidd o Fflandrys a benderfynodd ffoi rhag erledigaeth grefyddol. Derbyniwyd y peintiad hwn dan y cynllun 'in lieu in situ'. Prynwyd y llun gan J.C.Dent yn arwerthiant casgliad Horace Walpole yn Strawberry Hill, ym 1842.

This picture celebrates the harmony established by Queen Elizabeth I. Elizabeth is on the right, holding the hand of Peace and followed by Plenty. Her father Henry VIII, the founder of the Church of England, sits on his throne, and passes the sword of justice to his Protestant son Edward VI. On the left are Elizabeth's Catholic half-sister and predecessor Mary I and her husband Philip II of Spain, with Mars, the God of War. The picture, a gift from Queen Elizabeth to Sir Francis Walsingham, exemplifies the 16th century's fascination with allegory, the Queen's vision of herself as the culmination of the Tudor dynasty and her concern with the legitimacy of her regime.

Lucas de Heere came to London from Ghent in the late 1560s, one of many Flemish Protestant artists and craftspeople to flee religious persecution. This painting was accepted under the 'in lieu in situ scheme'. It was purchased by J.C.Dent at the sale of the collection of Horace Walpole at Strawberry Hill, in 1842.

Not sure if Pierantonio ever received a substantive reply to his query, but in case he didn't: the painting was accepted by the UK tax authorities in lieu of inheritance tax payable by the owners of Sudeley Castle, and was allocated to the collection of the National Museum. Under an arrangement between NMW and the owners of Sudeley Castle, it was lent back to the owners of Sudeley Castle and has remained located there ever since (except perhaps for conservation and/or temporary exhibition) - so it is owned by the National Museum but on long loan at Sudeley Castle. I'm a former junior curator in the Department of Art at NMW and a student of law relating to art and cultural property.

Dear Sirs,

I'm collecting images of paintings showing carpets.

The painting in the matter is quoted in my records both as placed at National Museum of Cardiff and at Sudeley Castle in Gloucestershire
Wikimedia Commons states :
Collection: National Museum Cardiff
Current location: on show at Sudeley Castle, Gloucestershire.
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Family_of_Henry_VIII,_an_Allegory_of_the_Tudor_Succession.png

Your site states that the painting is in (your) store.
My question is: there is only one painting or there are two (an original and one copy) ?

Your reply would appreciated.

With best regards,

Pierantonio Berioli

Hi there Monica

Thank you for your comment.

This painting would be classified as a dynastic portrait and it's in the style of the 16th Century Dutch school.

If you are analysing the meaning of the painting, you could look at some of the symbolism (such as the 'sword of justice' and other items that the subjects are carrying) or the positioning of the different subjects within the painting - who is the most prominent? Who is the 'next in line'?

Another theme to explore could be the textiles in the painting - are they wearing clothes from their own period from history? Are some wearing historical costumes? Why would they choose to do this? What kind of messages are they putting across by wearing silk, velvet, gold and jewels?

In terms of textures and detail - having seen this painting in person I always wonder whether some of the techniques e.g. the intricate perspective of the patterned rug, is the artist showing off their technical expertise, as well as showing off the wealth of the portrait's subject.

Thanks again for your enquiry and best of luck with your assignment from Wales!

Hi! I'm a senior high school student doing a project on the subject of monarchy for my AP English class. I was wondering what type of art-style this painting would classify as? I also need to analyze the colors, texture, and lines. Is there any way you could help me with that? I figured that the reds and oranges represent the royalty and the bloodline. It is a very warm painting and the lines are small to create detail. Is there any other element you could help me analyze that could highlight the theme of monarchy? Any help or comments will be very appreciated! Thank you!

Dear Josh,
Thank you for your enquiry, apologies for the delay in responding but we have been trying to locate further information for you. Unfortunately our collections don't hold much in the way of pre-18th century costume so we aren't able to help with this. I would suggest contacting Historic Royal Palaces, or email curators@hrp.org.uk who should have far more knowledge of this sort of thing.
Thank you for your interest,
Graham Davies

I would like to know a little it about the two different dresses Elizabeth and Mary are wearing. I notice that Mary is wearing an older style while Elizabeth is wearing a newer style. Why are they painted this way?

Could it have something to do with the supremacy of Elizabeth in the painting? Also, what time period is Mary's dress from?

Thank you,
Josh

Update:

Hi Justine,

A colleague from the Department of Art has been in touch with the following: "The background view past the pillars on the left of the painting is thought to represent the Palace of Whitehall, the main residence of the English and British monarchy between 1530 and 1698 when it was destroyed by fire."

All the best and thanks again for your enquiry,

Sara
