Description
This portrait of King Philip IV of Spain (1605–1665) is an interpretive copy of Diego Velazquez’s painting “King Philip IV as a Huntsman” in the collection of the Museo Nacional del Prado in Madrid. Although Brown’s portrait of Philip IV is unsigned, a note in the Brown University Archives records that it was found in the London studio of the American painter John Singer Sargent after that painter’s death in 1925. Sargent’s journals record that he visited the Prado on several occasions to study and sketch the paintings there, and based on that provenance and his presumed familiarity with the Velazquez portrait, the Brown portrait of Philip has traditionally been attributed to Sargent.
