EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Agnes Howard, Duchess of Norfolk, a prominent figure in 16th century England. Born Agnes Tilney in 1478 to Hugh Tilney of Boston, she later became the second wife of Thomas Howard, Duke of Norfolk. However, her life took a dramatic turn when she became entangled in the downfall of her niece Catherine Howard in 1542. The portrait captures Agnes with an air of elegance and poise befitting her noble status. She is depicted holding rosary beads, symbolizing her devout Catholic faith during a time when religious tensions ran high in England. The monochrome aesthetic adds a sense of timeless grace to the image. Agnes' involvement in Catherine's scandalous affair led to her own imprisonment within the Tower of London for a period. This historical event further emphasizes the complexity and intrigue surrounding this remarkable woman. The photograph was taken by an unknown creator but engraved by Hans Balding, who skillfully captured Agnes' regal presence on paper. It serves as both a testament to Agnes' place within English royalty and as a window into Tudor-era society. As we gaze upon this striking portrait print today, we are reminded not only of Agnes Howard's role within British history but also how art can preserve and illuminate stories from centuries past.
