EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning handcoloured lithograph depicts Lady Abergavenny, a noblewoman of the early Tudor period during the reign of King Henry VIII. Dated between 1509 and 1520, the portrait showcases Lady Abergavenny's elegant attire, which was described in detail by historians such as Hall, Hollingshed, and Stow. The dress itself is a vibrant green hue, featuring a square collar that frames her face and a fitted bodice that accentuates her waist. The puff sleeves are adorned with intricate lace cuffs, adding a delicate touch to the overall design. A gold belt cinches her waist, while a jeweled necklace, headdress, and choker complete her regal appearance. The portrait, which can be found in Horace Walpole's "Royal and Noble Authors," is believed to have been inspired by a brass in the Shelley family collection at Clapham Church in Sussex. The intricacies of the dress are beautifully captured in this lithograph, which is a testament to the artistry and craftsmanship of the time. Lady Abergavenny's attire is a prime example of the fashion trends during the early Tudor period, showcasing the opulence and grandeur of the era. The use of rich colors, intricate detailing, and luxurious materials were all hallmarks of the clothing worn by the nobility during this time. This historical artifact offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing us with valuable insights into the fashion, culture, and history of the Tudor period. The intricate details of Lady Abergavenny's dress, as depicted in this lithograph, continue to captivate and inspire fashion enthusiasts and historians alike.
