Description
English: Christina emerges here as queen in all her pomp and splendor, tightly gripping the orb. At first glance it can be difficult to apprehend that the portrait shows a young girl that already at the age of five had inherited the throne from her father Gustavus Adolphus. At the time, the artist Elbfas was in the service of Christina’s mother, dowager queen Maria Eleonora. He was a skilled portraitist, aware of the importance of depicting the opulent attire and the objects that demonstrate the position of the child, Christina.
Svenska: Kristina framträder här som drottning i all sin ståt och med riksäpplet i ett fast grepp. Vid en hastig blick kan det vara svårt att uppfatta att porträttet visar en ung flicka som redan vid fem års ålder hade ärvt tronen efter sin far Gustav II Adolf. Konstnären Elbfas var vid den här tiden i tjänst hos Kristinas mor, änkedrottning Maria Eleonora. Han var en skicklig porträttmålare, medveten om vikten av att väl avbilda den dyrbara dräkt och de föremål som visar barnet Kristinas ställning.
