Description

Explore the influential life of Hedwig Eleonora (1636-1715) through this scholarly study by Routledge. As both queen consort and dowager, she maintained a unique and powerful position in Sweden for over fifty years. This book examines her role as a primary collector and patron of art and architecture, which helped establish Sweden as a major cultural center in Northern Europe during the late seventeenth century. This publication provides the first major scholarly look at the full scope of her activities. Readers will learn about her extensive dynastic networks across Northern European courts and how she managed the financing of her court. It offers a deep look at her impact on Swedish court culture and her place within the larger princely landscape of the early modern world. This is an essential resource for students and historians interested in women, gender, and the arts in early modern Europe.
