In Vienna, the portraits of Marguerite, Philippe Prosper, Marie-Thérèse and Philippe IV tell of family diplomacy: faces circulate between the Habsburgs of Madrid and Austria.
Velazquez's remarkable ensemble kept at the Kunsthistorisches Museum can be explained by the dynastic links between the Spanish and Austrian branches of the Habsburgs. Portraits of royal children are sent from Madrid to Vienna to inform the family, prepare alliances and maintain a remote presence. Infanta Marguerite in a white dress then in blue thus grew up before the eyes of the imperial court before her marriage to Leopold I. The fabrics change, the hairstyle widens and the body gains confidence, while the face remains treated with more supple attention. Prince Philippe Prosper appears surrounded by protective amulets, poignant signs in one dynasty hit by infant mortality. Infanta Maria Theresa and Philip IV complete a chain where resemblance, rank and political negotiation cannot be separated. Velázquez breathes this constraint with a material that becomes clearer from a distance. The selection "Velázquez at the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna" notably compares L'Infante Marguerite in white dress and L'Infante Marguerite in blue. His reading favors light.
These portraits are at the same time people, promises of alliance and presences sent beyond borders.
