This portrait captures the beauty and allure of Mrs Moll Davies, the mistress of Charles II. Painted by Jean Baptiste Monnoyer and Peter Lely, this exquisite piece showcases Mrs Davies adorned with a stunning bouquet of flowers. The delicate brushstrokes bring to life her graceful features and radiant charm. Mrs Moll Davies was not only known for her enchanting looks but also for her talents as a dancer and actress. Her captivating performances captivated audiences during the 17th century. This painting serves as a testament to her status as one of the most celebrated women in English society at that time. The composition is expertly crafted, with Mrs Davies elegantly holding a guitar, adding an element of intrigue to the scene. Her cleavage subtly revealed adds an air of sensuality while maintaining an aura of sophistication.

Now housed in The Trustees of Weston Park Foundation in the UK, this timeless artwork continues to mesmerize viewers with its intricate details and rich history.
