EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the timeless beauty of Elizabeth, Lady Vaux, a prominent figure in Tudor England. Painted by the renowned artist Hans Holbein the Younger, this portrait captures her elegance and grace with remarkable precision. Lady Vaux, born Elizabeth Cheyne in 1509, was not only known for her striking appearance but also for her noble lineage as the daughter of Sir Thomas Cheney. As the wife of Thomas, 2nd Baron Vaux, she held a significant position within society during the 16th century Renaissance period. In this drawing, Lady Vaux's direct gaze and warm smile reveal both confidence and kindness. Her elaborate headdress adds to her regal aura while showcasing the fashion trends of that era. The use of black chalk creates depth and texture on paper, highlighting Holbein's mastery as an artist. This particular print is part of the Royal Collection Trust at Windsor Castle—a testament to its historical significance. Published in K. T. Parker's book "The Drawings of Holbein at Windsor Castle" it allows art enthusiasts to appreciate Holbein's talent from afar. As we admire this monochrome masterpiece from the forties—transcending time—we are reminded once again why Hans Holbein remains one of history's most celebrated artists. Through his skilled hand and keen eye for detail, he immortalized individuals like Lady Vaux who continue to captivate us centuries later.
