Summary
DescriptionSusanna and the Elders, by Artemisia Gentileschi (c.1638-40).jpg |
English: Painting by Artemisia Gentileschi originally intended for the Queen’s Withdrawing Chamber at Whitehall Palace. It was commissioned by Queen Henrietta Maria in the late 1630s and was likely painted in anticipation of the birth of Maria's sixth child, Catherine.
The artwork was sold for £20 in 1651 and later recovered in 1710. It was recorded without attribution in 1818 and then attributed to Italian artist Benedetto Gennari in 1861 before being placed in storage at Hampton Court Palace. Following its rediscovery and restoration, the artwork was put on public display at Windsor Castle in 2023. |
