EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative portrait captures the enigmatic beauty and regal grace of Jane Seymour (1509-1537), the third wife of King Henry VIII of England and mother of Edward VI. Painted by the renowned artist Hans Holbein the Great around 1537, the portrait was likely created to commemorate Jane's brief reign as queen consort and her role as the mother of a future monarch. Tragically, Jane died just eleven days after giving birth to Edward, making this image an enduring symbol of her devotion and sacrifice. Born in Wiltshire, England, Jane was a lady-in-waiting to Anne Boleyn, Henry's second wife, before becoming the king's consort in 1536. Her marriage to Henry was marked by her unwavering loyalty and piety, which contrasted sharply with the tumultuous and scandalous reigns of her predecessors. Jane's quiet dignity and grace are beautifully captured in this portrait, with her downcast gaze and delicate features. The richly embroidered gown she wears, adorned with intricate gold and pearl detailing, further emphasizes her regal status. Jane's tragic death in childbirth at the young age of twenty-eight left a deep impact on Henry and the English court. She was buried in the Chapel Royal of St. Peter ad Vincula in the Tower of London, and her tomb bears an inscription that reads, "Here lies the body of our most dear and beloved queen Jane, daughter and heir of the right honorable Sir John Seymour, knight, and of the Lady Margaret Wentworth, who was three times the queen's majesty's highness's wife, and died in childbed, the 12 day of October, Anno Domini 1537, in the 28 year of her age." This poignant portrait serves as a poignant reminder of Jane's brief but significant reign and her enduring legacy as the mother of a future king.
