About the Item
"a"
(English translation: "Octopus Queen Urraca I, Empress of All Spain")
24"×18" acrylic on canvas
©2021 Georgia Griffin
Queen Urraca I was the first woman ever to reign in a western European monarchy. She was therefore the first queen to mint coinage, which she did for of the kingdoms of Toledo and Leon. I have included a pair of those coins. The front of these coins was struck in her own image and name. Behind it you see the back of the coin for Toledo, "TOLETUO".
The name Urraca translates to "Magpie", and this bold Spanish queen sure lived up to that. In fact, the greatest challenge in painting this portrait was trying to include all the pearls and other gems garnishing her clothing and regalia.
