The Picture Vanishes
View through CrossRef
Chapter 15 investigates the circumstances around the apparent absence of the Salvator Mundi in the collection of King James II, with a particular focus on events in the immediate aftermath of the ‘Revolution’ of 1688. A number of possibilities present themselves. Did the painting pass out of the Royal Collection before the accession of James II in 1685? Did the dowager queen, Henrietta Maria, take it to a property of her jointure, or to France? Was the painting taken to Portugal by Queen Catherine of Braganza after the death of Charles II? This chapter considers the evidence of a key witness to events, and whether a painting described as a ‘Head of Our Saviour’, attributed to Leonardo da Vinci, sold out of the collection of the Duke of Buckingham in 1763, can be identified with the painting recorded in the collections of Charles I and Charles II. If so, by which route did it leave the Royal Collection and enter the Buckingham collection?
