EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving showcases the elegant profile of Catherine Howard, Queen of England and wife of Henry VIII. The portrait captures her in an English hood or gable hood headdress, adorned with a regal ermine robe. With a crown atop her head and holding a sceptre, Catherine exudes grace and power. The artist, Adriaan van der Werff, masterfully engraved this image which now stands as a historical testament to one of England's most intriguing queens. Cornelis Vermeulen skillfully reproduced van der Werff's work through copperplate engraving for Isaac de Larrey's Histoire d'Angleterre. Intricate foliage frames the oval-shaped print, adding a touch of decorative elegance to the overall composition. This 18th-century masterpiece transports us back in time to witness an important figure in European history. Catherine Howard's tragic fate adds another layer of complexity to this portrait. As we gaze upon her side view profile, we are reminded of the tumultuous nature of royal life during that era. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder collection for all art enthusiasts to appreciate and admire. It serves as both a visual delight and an educational tool for those interested in exploring the rich tapestry of history through art.
