Christina von Dänemark (links, sie hat kaum Ähnlichkeit mit sich selbst, vermutlich bediente man sich eines Porträts ihrer jüngeren Tochter Dorothea, um dieses Porträt von ihr zu erstellen!) mit ihrer Schwiegertochter, Claude von Frankreich (in der Mitte), und ihrer Enkelin Christina, Großherzogin der Toskana (rechts), 1589
Kommentar bezüglich dieses Gemäldes, gefunden in: Julia Cartwright Ady: Christina of Denmark – Duchess of Milan and Lorraine. London 1913, S. 508-509:
„There is an interesting triptych in the Prado at Madrid, with portraits of the bride (Christina von der Toskana), her mother and her grandmother, painted by some Burgundian artist at the time of her wedding. The young Grand-Duchess (Christina von der Toskana), a tall, handsome girl of 24, wears a high lace ruff, with ropes of pearls round her neck and a jewelled girdle at her waist. She carries a fan in her hand, and the Medici palle are emblazoned on her shield with the lilies of France and the eagles of Lorraine. Her mother, the short-lived Duchess Claude, bears a marked resemblance to Catherine de'Medici, but is smaller and slighter in build, and altogether of a gentler and feebler type. She too holds a fan, and wears a gown of rich brocade with bodice and sleeves thickly sown with pearls. Christina (von Dänemark), on the contrary, is clad in mourning robes, and her white frilled cap and veil and plain cambric ruff are without a single jewel. But the fine features and noble presence reveal her high lineage. Instead of a fan, she holds a parchment deed in her hand, and on her shield the arms of Austria and Denmark are quartered with those of Milan and Lorraine, while above (auf diesem Bild nicht zu sehen!) we read the proud list of her titles – Queen of Denmark, Sweden, and Norway, Duchess of Milan, Lorraine, Bar, and Calabria, and Lady of Tortona.“
