EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the elegant and demure Mary, Duchess of Richmond and Somerset, captured in a stunning portrait by the renowned artist Hans Holbein the Younger. Created around 1532-1533, this artwork is part of the esteemed Royal Collection Trust housed at Windsor Castle. Mary FitzRoy, formerly known as Lady Mary Howard, holds a significant place in history as she was not only King Henry VIII's daughter-in-law but also married to his only acknowledged illegitimate son, Henry FitzRoy. The monochrome drawing beautifully depicts her grace and poise as she gazes downward with an air of sophistication. Holbein's masterful use of black chalk brings depth and dimension to this Renaissance-era piece. The intricate details of Mary's attire highlight the fashion trends of the 16th century while emphasizing her royal status. Her black hat adds a touch of mystery to her persona. This print captures a moment frozen in time - an unfinished masterpiece that allows us to glimpse into the past. It serves as a testament to both Holbein's artistic prowess and Mary's influential role within Tudor society. As we admire this remarkable work from the 1945 publication "The Drawings of Holbein at Windsor Castle" by K. T. Parker, we are reminded of how art can transcend centuries and provide us with glimpses into lives long gone.
