EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite portrait of Lettice Knollys, Lady Leicester, created by an anonymous English artist in the 17th century. Painted on vellum with watercolors, this delicate artwork is now held in a private collection. Lettice Knollys, also known as Laetitia and referred to as Lettice Devereux or Lettice Dudley due to her marriages, was a prominent figure in English nobility during the 16th and 17th centuries. Born in 1543 and passing away at the remarkable age of 91 in 1634, she left an indelible mark on history. The bust-length portrait captures Lady Leicester's regal presence with utmost precision. Her elegant oval face is framed by a magnificent ruff collar that adds grandeur to her stature. The artist skillfully employs vibrant colors to bring out every intricate detail of her countenance. This miniature sculpture serves as a testament to both artistic mastery and historical significance. It offers us a glimpse into the life of Lettice Knollys – a woman who navigated through tumultuous times while leaving behind an enduring legacy. As we admire this extraordinary piece of art from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are transported back in time to witness the beauty and grace that defined Lady Leicester's existence.
