EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait showcases Mary I, also known as Mary Tudor, at the age of 28. Painted in 1544 by Master John, this panel print measures 71.1x50.8 cm and is currently housed in the National Portrait Gallery in London, UK. Mary I was the daughter of King Henry VIII and is famously remembered for her tumultuous reign as Queen of England from 1553 until her death in 1558. This portrait depicts her during a time when she was still hopeful and full of promise. Adorned with pearls around her neck and a pendant hanging delicately from it, Mary exudes regality and elegance. Her bonnet sits atop her head gracefully while puffed sleeves add a touch of fashion to her attire. Although history has often referred to Mary I as "Bloody Mary" due to religious persecutions that occurred during her reign, this portrait captures a softer side of the queen. It allows us to see beyond the controversial aspects of her rule and appreciate the woman behind the title. Master John's skillful brushwork brings out every detail on Mary's face – from delicate features to expressive eyes – capturing both beauty and strength simultaneously. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, we are reminded that even those who have faced criticism throughout history can still possess an undeniable allure that transcends time.
