1579 1601 Katherine Puritan Will I Am
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative portrait captures the strong and determined spirit of Katherine Bruen, later known as Katherine Bretterg, in the late 1500s. Born into a prominent Puritan family, Katherine's unwavering commitment to her faith would shape the course of her life. At the time this portrait was taken, between 1579 and 1601, Katherine was the wife of William Bretterg, a prosperous farmer and landowner at Bretterghold in England. Despite the challenges and persecutions faced by Puritans during this period, Katherine's unyielding faith shines through in her piercing gaze and the quiet resolve in her posture. Her plain, yet elegant attire reflects the simple and pious values of her community. The intricate lace collar and cuffs, as well as the delicate embroidery on her sleeves, reveal her refined taste and the prosperity of her husband's household. The portrait serves as a testament to Katherine's resilience and unwavering dedication to her Puritan beliefs, which would have been a source of strength and inspiration for her and her family during a time of religious turmoil. The image invites us to reflect on the courage and conviction of individuals like Katherine, who stood firm in their beliefs and shaped the religious and social landscape of their communities.
