Isabella I (1451–1504), also called Isabella the Catholic, was Queen of Castile and of León from 1474 until her death. She was also Queen consort of Aragon from 1479. Isabella's 1469 marriage to Ferdinand II of Aragon created the basis of the de facto unification of Spain and Ferdinand provided assistance for her victory in the War of the Castilian Succession. Reigning together over a dynastically unified Spain, Isabella and Ferdinand are known as the Catholic Monarchs. Her reign marked the end of the Reconquista and also the start of the Spanish Empire, allowing Spain to dominate European politics for the next century. This portrait of Isabella was produced in around 1490 by an unknown artist and is now in the collection of the Museo del Prado in Madrid.Painting credit: Anonymous
