EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print showcases Margaret Brooke, Lady Denham, a prominent figure in 17th century England. Painted by the renowned artist Peter Lely during the c1660s, this artwork captures Lady Denham's aristocratic grace and beauty. Margaret Brooke (1646-1667) possessed all the qualities that could have made her King Charles II's mistress had it not been for the jealousy of Lady Castlemaine. Despite this setback, Lady Denham remained an influential member of English society during the Restoration period. Lely's masterful use of color brings out every intricate detail in this portrait. The vibrant hues highlight Lady Denham's elegant attire and emphasize her regal stature. Her poise and confidence are evident as she gazes directly at the viewer, exuding both strength and sophistication. Displayed within the Royal Collection, this artwork is a testament to Sir Peter Lely's skill as a portraitist. His ability to capture not only physical likeness but also convey personality is truly remarkable. As we admire this print today, we are transported back to a time when England was undergoing significant social and political changes. Margaret Brooke, Lady Denham stands as a symbol of resilience and determination amidst turbulent times. The Print Collector has preserved this piece of history for us to appreciate centuries later. It serves as a reminder of the power art holds in immortalizing individuals who have shaped our past with their presence and influence
