Resumen
The production of portraits of the youngest members ofthe royal family enjoyed great prominence throughout the history of court portraiture in the Early Modern period.This is reflected in the documentation from the reign of Philip III of Spain and Margaret of Austria, who took great care and interest in shaping an appropriate image fortheir eight children from birth. Although the portraits produced during the lactation period were mainly for family viewing, these works are subject to the formal and icono-graphic standards of the official portrait whose ultimateaim is to show regal majesty.
