100 followers gift!
First of all, I would like to thank you all for this amazing year! It's been a pleasure meeting you all and I'm beyond thankful for your support.
Spread among 13 occupied and historic royal residences in the United Kingdom, the collection is owned by King Charles III and overseen by the Royal Collection Trust. The British monarch owns some of the collection in right of the Crown and some as a private individual. It is made up of over one million objects, including 7,000 paintings, over 150,000 works on paper, this including 30,000 watercolours and drawings, and about 450,000 photographs, as well as around 700,000 works of art, including tapestries, furniture, ceramics, textiles, carriages, weapons, armour, jewellery, clocks, musical instruments, tableware, plants, manuscripts, books, and sculptures.
Some of the buildings which house the collection, such as Hampton Court Palace, are open to the public and not lived in by the Royal Family, whilst others, such as Windsor Castle, Kensington Palace and the most remarkable of them, Buckingham Palace are both residences and open to the public.
About 3,000 objects are on loan to museums throughout the world, and many others are lent on a temporary basis to exhibitions.

The two beautiful and intelligent daughters of Elisabeth of Valois were very loved by their father, the King of Spain. He called them "the light of my eyes"
Isabel Clara Eugenia and Catalina Micaela are my daughters, and they are so dear to me - in both soul and perfection - that I would give my life and my kingdoms for them if the circumstances would demand so. - Felipe II of Spain

Las dos Infantas que en el ancho suelo
con sus rayos clarísimos deslumbran
como dos nortes en que estriba el cielo,
como dos soles que la tierra alumbran.
Son las que a fuerza de su inmenso vuelo
al soberano nombre de Austria encumbran,
bella Isabel y Catalina bella,
ésta sin par y sin igual aquélla.
Gálvez de Montalvo, 1586

10 DE OCTUBRE DE 1567 NACE CATALINA MICAELA
Nace en Madrid,hija de Felipe II y de Isabel de Valois
Tanto padre e hija no pudieron disfrutar mucho de su mutua compañía.Cualquiera de sus dos hijas era un as en la manga del soberano a la hora de conseguir una buena alianza política
En este caso la moneda de cambio fue la menor de las hermanas,Catalina Micaela,
mientras que su hermana mayor Isabel Clara Eugenia,se convertía en la mano derecha del monarca
La figura de Catalina siempre palideció a la sombra de su hermana;sin embargo,fue un personaje clave en la política exterior de su padre.Ya que su matrimonio con el duque de Saboya y la consiguiente alianza entre ambas coronas garantizaba la posibilidad de franquear libremente el paso de los Alpes y aseguraba la comunicación entre los territorios hispánicos del norte de Europa y los del sur
La Infanta,en principio no estaba conforme con el matrimonio,era muy joven,no quería separarse de su familia,y considera que un duque es poca cosa para la hija del monarca más poderoso de Europa
Carlos Manuel I de Saboya,hijo único de Manuel Filiberto de Saboya y de Margarita de Berry(tía de Isabel de Valois).Era un hombre de carácter abierto,seguro de sí mismo y un gran militar.Fue un hombre galante y seductor a pesar de una ligera corcova,que solía disimular con amplias capas
Zaragoza fue la ciudad elegida para la boda.
Congregó a multitud de gente.La fecha prevista era el 11 de marzo 1585,en la Seo
Catalina vestía de terciopelo grana bordado con hilos de oro y piedras preciosas;el Duque
uniforme amarillo,recamado de perlas y botonadura de diamantes
El mal tiempo obligó a suspender la mayor parte de los festejos
El 2 de Abril ponen rumbo a Barcelona,en cuyo puerto estaba previsto que embarcaran con destino a Génova.Pero el viaje se aplazó,ya que los dos cayeron enfermas
Por fin el 13 de Junio,fue la fecha fijada para que los recién casados regresaran a tierras Piamontesas
La despedida fue dramática,Catalina Micaela se niega a recibir una sarta de perlas,que su padre le ofrece como regalo de despedida,.
Ella aduce que era demasiado para quien solo era la esposa de un Duque
Sin poder contenerse la recién casada se abrazó a su hermana y a su padre deshecha en lágrimas y rota de dolor por la separación que se preveía definitiva
No solo su esposo quedó rendido a su encanto; cortesanos y pueblo la adoraban, y ella secundó siempre a su esposo,se entregó en la tarea de hacer de Turín una auténtica capital europea.
Durante las ausencias de su esposo actuó como regente, y tomo decisiones acertadas y prudentes
Cumplió con la condición de vientre fértil,que se exigía a toda princesa. Del matrimonio nacieron: Felipe Emanuel,Victor Amadeo,Filiberto Manuel,Margarita, Isabel,Mauricio,María Apolonia,Francisca Catalina y Tomas Francisco
En 1597, fallece Catalina Micaela tras parir a una niña (Juana,que apenas alentó unas horas)
Su muerte fue devastadora tanto para su marido como para su padre. Carlos Manuel se retiró 3 meses a un monasterio y su padre Felipe se encerró en su cámara, ordenó decir misa de difuntos pero no se vio con fuerzas para presidirla

Catalina Micaela of Austria, Philip II of Spain’s younger surviving daughter
“Recibió, como su hermana, una buena formación en Matemáticas, Filosofía, Historia y Literatura, siendo también instruida en el baile. Según nota del embajador veneciano Mateo Zane (1584), la infanta no era tan bella “y graciosa como su hermana, pero sí más alegre y jovial” y, al parecer, “de aspecto latino, tenía la color tostada de las mediterráneas, el encanto y el misterio florentino, la exquisitez francesa y ese algo indefinible que penetra hasta lo íntimo”.
Source
“She [Catalina Micaela] received, like her sister, a good education in Mathematics, Philosophy, History and Literature, being also instructed in the dance. According to a note by the Venetian ambassador Mateo Zane (1584), the infanta was not as beautiful "and graceful as her sister, but she was more cheerful and jovial" and, apparently, "of Latin appearance, she had the tan color of Mediterranean women, the Florentine charm and mystery, French exquisiteness and that indefinable something that penetrates to the intimate.”

I love Catalina Micaela so much 🥺🥺🥺
Last time at was at El Prado I spend an embarrassing amount of time staring at her and her sister's paintings. It's so sad she died when she was just 30, and her father never saw her since she left for Savoy 😭😭😭
Same here! She is one of my favorite spanish infantas ever. Her portraits (Am I the only one who thinks she was a great beauty?) or her arrogance (the iconic scene when she rejected the jewels that his father was giving to her 'cause she have been married off to a duke and not to a king) made her an interesting historical figure that sadly is barely known.
And yes, the reactions of her father and her husband to her death were just so sad ):
