EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the regal and resolute Queen Mary I, painted in 1554 by Hans Eworth or Ewoutsz. Measuring at an impressive 104 x 78.5 cm, this oil on oak masterpiece is held by the Society of Antiquaries of London, UK. Queen Mary I, also known as Bloody Mary, reigned over England from 1553 to 1558. In this portrait, she exudes power and authority with her commanding presence. Hanging from her girdle is a striking gilt and enamel reliquary adorned with emblems representing the Four Evangelists. Notable details embellish Queen Mary's attire; a diamond graces her breast - a gift bestowed upon her by Emperor Charles V. Additionally, she wears a pendant pearl called La Pelegrina which holds historical significance as it was purchased in 1969 by actor Richard Burton for his beloved Elizabeth Taylor as a Valentine's Day present. The artist skillfully captures Queen Mary's stern expression while simultaneously highlighting her opulent jewelry and royal garments. This photograph print allows us to appreciate the intricate details of this remarkable painting up close. Through Todd-White Art Photography's lens, we are transported back in time to witness the majesty of one of England's most controversial monarchs. The image serves as both an artistic tribute and historical documentation that immortalizes Queen Mary I for generations to come.
