Description
Italiano: Il ritratto fu commissionato a Frans Pourbus il Giovane, pittore di corte di Maria de' Medici, dalla zia acquisita di quest'ultima, la granduchessa Cristina di Lorena. Insieme fu commissionato un ritratto delle stesse misure del re regnante, cioè Luigi XIII, figlio di Maria, ma per errore il Pourbus realizzò il ritratto pendant di Enrico IV, marito della regina. Vista l'alta qualità, si decise di tenere il ritratto del re defunto. Queste due versioni decorarono per anni gli apparatmenti di Palazzo Pitti, dove si trovano ancora adesso; altre due copie furono commissionate allo stesso pittore nel 1613 per la «serie de' serenissimi principi», oggi nota come «serie aulica», una raccolta di ritratti dei membri più importanti della famiglia Medici (collocata presso i corridoi della Galleria degli Uffizi).
English: This portrait was commissioned to Frans Pourbus the Younger, Maria de' Medici's court painter, by her aunt, Grand Duchess Christina of Lorraine. A portrait of the reigning king – Louis XIII, Maria's son – of the same dimensions was commissioned too, but wrongly Pourbus painted a matching portrait of Henri IV, the Queen's husband. Because of its high quality, they decided to keep the portrait of the late King. This two versions decorated for years Palazzo Pitti's apartements, where they still are; two other versions in 1613 for the «series of the most serene princes», now called «serie aulica», a collection of portraits of the most important members of the House of Medici (placed at Uffizi Gallery's corridors)
