EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite portrait captures the enchanting beauty and regal grace of Mildred Cooke, the second wife of William Cecil, Lord Burghley. Born in 1526, Mildred was the eldest daughter of John Cooke, a wealthy landowner from Norfolk, England. Her striking features, with her delicate complexion, piercing blue eyes, and auburn hair, were said to have captivated Lord Burghley, who was then a powerful and influential statesman in the court of Queen Elizabeth I. Mildred's marriage to Lord Burghley in 1554 was a strategic union, as the Cecil family sought to strengthen their political position and alliances. Despite the political motives behind their union, the couple shared a deep bond, and Mildred proved to be an excellent wife and mother to their five children. As Lady Burghley, Mildred was known for her intelligence, wit, and charm. She was an accomplished musician and patron of the arts, and her salon at Burghley House was a gathering place for the brightest minds and most creative artists of the day. Her influence extended beyond her home, as she played a key role in the education and upbringing of Queen Elizabeth I and was a trusted advisor to the queen. This portrait, believed to have been painted around the time of Mildred's marriage, offers a glimpse into the life of a remarkable woman who played a significant role in Tudor history. Her legacy as a loving wife, devoted mother, and influential figure in English politics continues to inspire and captivate generations.
