EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print showcases Lady Mary Howard, a prominent figure in the Tudor era. Painted by the renowned artist Holbein the Younger, this watercolor on parchment piece is now housed in the National Museum of Stockholm, Sweden. Lady Mary Howard was born in 1519 and became an influential member of English aristocracy through her marriage to Henry Fitzroy, Duke of Richmond and Somerset. At just fourteen or fifteen years old, she wedded Henry VIII's illegitimate son. Her lineage connected her closely to notable figures such as Anne Boleyn, Catherine Howard, and Jane Seymour. The painting itself depicts Lady Mary adorned in a stunning costume that reflects her noble status. The intricate embroidery and gold thread detailing on her attire exemplify sumptuary fashion of the time. A delicate hood frames her face while showcasing exquisite jewelry that adds to her regal appearance. Holbein masterfully captures Lady Mary's elegance with his use of watercolor techniques. The softness and delicacy conveyed through this medium enhance the overall beauty of this miniature portrait. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork from centuries past, we are transported back to a time when power dynamics were intricately woven into every aspect of society. This print serves as a testament to Lady Mary Howard's influence within England's royal court during one of its most iconic periods - the Tudor dynasty.
