One of my favourite images of Mary Tudor, Queen of France. Lorenzo Pasqualigo wrote on 23 September 1514 that Mary was “tall, fair, and of a light complexion”. Not only did her contemporaries describe Mary as having fair hair, but she was also noted to have pale grey eyes.

Astonishing that this portrait of Princess Elizabeth can be traced in an inventory of Edward VI’s paintings in 1547: ‘A table with the picture of the ladye Elizabeth her grace with a booke in her hande her gowne like crymsen clothe of golde withe workes’ [RCIN 404444]

One of the many hidden treats inside Book of Hours, made in Paris in c.1526, is the vibrancy of the hand coloured woodcuts. The vividness of the orange of the hose and breeches in this image in particular absolutely blows my mind.
