EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the stunning portrait of Elizabeth Howard, Countess of Banbury, attributed to the talented artist Daniel Mytens. The painting is housed in Kenwood House, Suffolk Collection in London and dates back to the Stuart era. Elizabeth Howard (1586-1658) exudes elegance and grace as she gazes confidently into the distance. Her regal presence is enhanced by her exquisite lace attire, which adds a touch of sophistication to this remarkable piece of art. The artist's skillful brushstrokes capture every intricate detail of Elizabeth's lace collar and cuffs, highlighting their delicate patterns and textures. This attention to detail reveals both the artistic mastery of Mytens and the opulence associated with high society during this period. As we delve into history through this photograph, we are transported back in time to an era filled with intrigue and grandeur. Elizabeth Howard's portrait serves as a testament to her status as a prominent figure within English aristocracy. Preserved by Historic England Photo Library, this image allows us to appreciate not only the beauty of Elizabeth herself but also provides valuable insight into 17th-century fashion trends and portraiture techniques.
