Reconstruction of the portrait, showing the profile from Memphis on the left.

The Triple Portrait of Henrietta Maria is a 1638 painting by Antony van Dyck showing Henrietta Maria, wife of Charles I of England. Charles had previously commissioned van Dyck to produce a triple portrait of himself to send to Italy so that Bernini could produce a bust of him. When the bust arrived, the queen ordered a bust of herself by Bernini and commissioned van Dyck to produce a similar triple portrait. The left-facing profile and full-on view are in the Royal Collection,^[1] whilst the right-facing profile is probably the portrait of the queen now in the Memphis Brooks Museum of Art.^[2]
