1516 1558 Oval Ruff Tudor Vanderbanck
EDITORS COMMENTS
Mary Tudor, also known as Mary I or Mary I of England, is depicted in this stunning 16th-century portrait wearing the regal attire of a Tudor queen. The oval print captures Mary's strong and determined gaze, as she dons an elegant cap adorned with intricate embroidery and a richly decorated crown atop her dark curls. The collar of her gown is adorned with pearls and precious stones, symbolizing her wealth and status. Mary Tudor, born in 1516, was the daughter of King Henry VIII and Catherine of Aragon. After the death of her brother, Edward VI, she ascended to the throne of England in 1553, marking the end of the English Reformation and the beginning of the Catholic Counter-Reformation. Her reign, which lasted from 1553 to 1558, was characterized by her efforts to restore Catholicism as the dominant religion in England. This historical portrait, created by the renowned artist Vanderbanck, showcases the ornate and opulent style of the Tudor era. Mary's ruff, a high, starched collar that was fashionable during this time, adds to the grandeur of the image. The intricate details of the embroidery on her cap and gown, as well as the delicate pearls and precious stones on her collar, reflect the wealth and power of the Tudor monarchy. Mary Tudor's reign was marked by religious turmoil and political instability, but her determination to restore Catholicism to England left a lasting impact on English history. This portrait serves as a reminder of her strength, her commitment to her faith, and the grandeur of the Tudor era.
