My Take
Margaret of Austria captivates me as one of history's formidable women. Born in Brussels in 1480, this Habsburg archduchess twice served as Governor of the Habsburg Netherlands and was the first female regent there. What impresses me is not only that she wielded political power at the center of a man's world, but that she was also a patron of the arts, a collector, a painter, and a composer. To grasp both power and culture with both hands, five centuries ago, is remarkable. I admire the depth of a ruler who navigated political storms while never ceasing to love beauty.
