EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Princess Mary, later known as Queen Mary I, in the year 1537. The image beautifully captures the essence of this influential historical figure who reigned as Queen of England and Ireland from 1553 until her passing in 1558. As the fourth monarch of the Tudor dynasty, Queen Mary I is renowned for her fervent efforts to restore Roman Catholicism in England after a period of Protestant rule. Dressed in an exquisite gown with intricate sleeves, Princess Mary exudes regal elegance. Her headdress and jewelry add a touch of grandeur to her ensemble, emphasizing her status as a royal figurehead. This portrait not only reflects the fashion trends prevalent during the sixteenth century but also symbolizes religious devotion through its depiction of Catholic symbolism. The artist's attention to detail brings out every nuance on Princess Mary's face – a mix of determination and grace that characterized her reign. Despite being commonly referred to as "Bloody Mary" due to her persecution of Protestants, this portrait reminds us that she was more than just a controversial ruler; she was an individual shaped by complex circumstances. This remarkable illustration is taken from Henry VIII by A. F Pollard, published by Goupil & Co in 1902. Its monochrome aesthetic adds depth and timelessness to this historical artifact while allowing viewers to appreciate every intricate detail captured within it.
