About Artwork: (About 1615) "Against a deep red background, the Archduke Albert of Austria turns towards us with a direct but gentle gaze. His left hand is on the pommel of his sword but his pose is relaxed and unintimidating. His right arm is turned towards us, showing off the delicate pattern of his sleeve and the lace ruffle at his wrist. Albert was part of the Habsburg family, one of the powerful reigning dynasties in Europe at the time, and some of his features are unmistakably Habsburg: long cheeks, an aquiline nose and a high brow. Philip II of Spain appointed Albert as Governor of the Spanish Netherlands, and he took on the task of subduing the rebellious Protestants in the seven Northern Provinces. Shortly afterwards he married Isabella, Philip’s favourite daughter. The couple held joint sovereignty of the Netherlands until Albert’s death in 1621." - (National Gallery of Art, London)
