EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Mary Herbert, Countess of Pembroke: Patron of Poets and Founder of Pembroke College, Cambridge, in Prayer" This evocative image captures Mary Herbert, Countess of Pembroke (1561-1621), in a moment of quiet reflection. Dressed in a rich blue gown adorned with white stripes, the Countess is depicted in her private chamber, surrounded by the tranquility of her Cambridge home. Her hands are folded in prayer, her eyes closed, as she seeks solace and guidance from a higher power. Mary Herbert, born Mary Sidney, was a remarkable woman of the English Renaissance. She was the daughter of the poet Philip Sidney and the sister of the poet Sir Philip Sidney. Mary's own literary talents were recognized early on, and she became a patron of poets and writers, including Samuel Daniel, John Donne, and Fulke Greville. In 1600, Mary founded Pembroke College, Cambridge, as a college for women. This groundbreaking institution was the first in England to provide higher education for women, and it remains a testament to Mary's vision and commitment to advancing learning and opportunity for women. The Countess is shown here with an open book in her lap, symbolizing her love of learning and her role as a patron of the arts. The blue and white colors of her gown reflect the heraldic colors of the Sidney and Herbert families, emphasizing her noble heritage and her connection to the rich history of England. This image offers a glimpse into the life of a remarkable woman who defied the conventions of her time and made a lasting impact on the intellectual and cultural landscape of her country. Mary Herbert, Countess of Pembroke, remains an inspiring figure in the annals of English history.
