Object history sold by Philip Mould
Notes "This portrait type has been dated by Sir Oliver Millar to c. 1662, shortly after the Restoration. The present painting is a good example of Lely’s technique at this time, as fashion and society, and therefore portraiture, emerged from the Puritan austerity of the Protectorate. Here, the elegant inspiration of Van Dyck can be seen, tailored to suit the taste for portraits in the grand Carolinian style in a symbolic reminder of the return of royalty. Anne’s teasing playing of her hair is deliberately suggestive of a royal consort’s prime role – breeding – but also a reminder of her great wit." [1]
